Hockomock Swamp Paddle. Monday April, 15

Posted by Steve on 4/13/2024, 2:12 pm

Meet at the end of Maple Street near The Mass Wildlife Sign and gate. This is about a mile from the RT 106 Exit off RT 24 in West Bridgewater MA. There is an easy 1000 foot portage to the river. Wheels are recommended. Wet or dry suit required. The critters should be coming out by now and I hear that Pukwudgies may be sighted in the swamp.

I was thinking about an 11:00 Launch but I could push back. What time do you think you could make it?

It is about a 5 mile round trip about 2.5 hrs.
Last time the water was high enough and I was able to stay in the boat for the whole trip.

I could make it by 12:15, but don't feel pressured to change plans on my account
