Paddle Plans
A launch guide tells you where to put in. A paddle plan helps you turn that launch into a day: where to paddle, what to check, what to pair nearby, and a backup idea if the water or weather does not cooperate.
Not sure where to begin? Pick the kind of day you want. Each plan points to a primary launch or destination, the conditions to check, a nearby pairing, and a backup option for when the forecast changes.
These first plans are in progress. Cards marked Planned are on the build list and will link through as each plan is written. Until then, use the launch and destination guides they are based on.
