About this product

Product Information

Let the names of Florida's rivers and coastal waters roll off your tongue: Ocklawaha, Chassahowitzka, Suwannee, Waccasassa, Aucilla, Wacissa, Sopchoppy, Withlachoochee, Loxahatchee, Homosassa, Pithlachascotee, Econfina, Kissimmee... If you've paddled these waters in a canoe or kayak, the Native American place names evoke winding streams and shaded hammocks, shimmering coastal waters and wild tree islands. Florida is made for paddling."Wild Florida Waters" places Florida's unsurpassed beauty and abundant wildlife in the forefront, from the mangrove labyrinth of the Ten Thousand Islands to the springfed Ichetucknee River. It also includes an exciting dose of paddling adventures, whether it's tipping over in the Suwannee River's Big Shoals rapids, surfing wind-generated waves while paddling the remote Apalachee Bay, or meeting up with a different form of "wild life" on a scenic waterway. Through all of the adrenalin, a strong conservation message permeates the volume, and useful how-to information is included at the end of each chapter."A celebration of a part of Florida most visitors-and many residents-never see, a celebration of what old-timers call the real Florida."--Warren Richey, author of "Without a Paddle: Racing Twelve Hundred Miles Around Florida by Sea Kayak" "It is past time somebody wrote a book of this caliber. A treasure trove of information for nature enthusiasts."--Bill Richards, Executive Director, Paddle Florida"His blend of history and personal anecdotes is both entertaining and enlightening."--Tom McLaulin, president, Florida Paddling Trails Association

GOOD BUT COULD BE BETTER
THIS BOOK STARTS OUT NICELY. I AM 83 AND HAVE PADDLED ALL THE STREAMS HE TALKS ABOUT IN THE BOOK EXCEPT THE SALT WATER TRAIL. IT WAS NOT THERE. I HAVE PADDLED ACROSS FLORIDA BAY TO CAPE SABLE WHEN THE BOW OF THE BOAT WAS SO FAR OUT OF THE WATER YOU COULD NOT REACH IT WITH A PADDLE. I HAVE BEEN DOWN THE SLAVE CANAL SO MANY TIMES I CANNOT COUNT AND IF YOU WATCH THE WATER GOING THRU THE WILD RICE ITS NO PROBLEM TO FIND YOUR WAY. THE FIRST TIME I DID IT THERE WERE 28 PULLOVERS. THE SECOND TIME WE HEARD NOISE IN THE SWAMP AND SAT QUITE TO SEE WHAT IT WAS. TWO SHOCKED SURVEYORS STEPPED OUT AND TOOK A LOOK AT US SMEARED WITH MUCK AND SAID "WE ARE GETTING PAID TO DO THIS. WHY ARE YOU HERE"? YES TATES HELL CAN BE HELL! ONLY DID IT ONCE! I AM THANKFUL I PADDLED THESE STREAMS WHEN YOU NEVER SAW ANOTHER PERSON. I WONDER IF THE AUTHOR REMEMBERS OR HAS RESEARCHED THE HUNTING SHACKS THAT USED TO BE ON THE WEKIVA. OUT HOUSES HUNG OUT OVER THE WATER. I THANK HE IS RUNNING OUT OF WILD PLACES TO WRITE ABOUT. ALSO HE BRAGS A TAD ABOUT BEING ABLE TO CAMP AND USE CABINS NO ONE ELSE CAN. DOES HE KNOW ABOUT THE ONE ON JUNIPER SPRINGS? IT GETS LAME IN THE END. TAKE IT FROM A FLORIDA CRACKER THAT REMEMBERS WHEN!Read full review
