The cold, frigid weather has me reminiscing about warm sunny days and outdoor fun. One of my fondest summer memories include my first midwest kayaking experience in Detroit with Riverside Kayak Connection. In the second installment of the Dear Detroit series, I take a look at what it feels like to paddle in international waters & explore the hidden canals within the Motor City.
This unique perspective into the City of Detroit offers a little bit of everything. A look into the historical impact that the Detroit river had on the U.S., the modern-day reality of what Detroit homes look like and are being developed into and the ecological perspective which is often overshadowed because of its home within city limits. If you’re looking for something new or a different way to rediscover Detroit, ditch those car keys for a paddle and a kayak, you’ll be happy you did. Want to see more?
