Edith Lake is close to town, providing quick access, but it can be a busy place for fishermen and campers.   For this reason we usually paddle the lake in the off-season.   On a cool and windy October day, I launched my kayak into the headwinds for two loops around the lake.

There is a long arm of the lake that was partly sheltered from the winds.   The lake is shallower there so fishermen don’t often venture that way.

A side arm was completely protected from winds.

Twice around the lakeshore is about 7 km, a good outing for fall paddling.

This was Day 61 of paddling in 2020.   A handful of days were left as the temperatures dropped and windy days followed.
