Designed to be easily referenced on the water, the handy guide contains
maps of ten river segments that are suitable for paddling. Click here to view one of the maps. Accompanying
text describes good access points, hazards, scenic spots, points of interest,
boat rental outlets, and more. River mile indicators on the maps help
paddlers gauge distances accurately.
The Second Edition of the guide was produced in 2010 with help from many vendors who provided donated and discounted services. VinceParatore.com contributed complimentary design services; Herb Heidt at Mapworks produced the maps
at a substantial discount; and Yupo Corporation donated synthetic waterproof paper. Many thanks!
Assistance was provided by a number
of paddling enthusiasts, CRWA membesr, and staff from the Department of Conservation and Recreation and Charles River Canoe and Kayak.
