The 2011 Wampanoag Canoe Passage started out with a record-breaking 26 people, 6 canoes and 7 kayaks on Thursday, June 9th. Thanks to everyone who took part. Here are some pictures from Day 1. Above are some musings on the Passage from others who took part.

I am interested in kayaking the Wampanoag Canoe Passage. Gleaning information from the accounts here makes me wonder how punishing a lot of it is, and how low water levels might make make it impossible. A few days ago I found the bog between Little Sandy Bottom and Stetson Ponds closed, necessitating a 1.2mi portage that begins with rt 27--which has no shoulder. Could you comment on your experiences at specific tough stretches, and any workarounds you would suggest?
