The first leg of the challenge is from Six Mile Lake (Echo Park) to Wooden Shoe Park, Ellsworth. Driving directions are ... Ellsworth, Six mile lake road to Echo Park. If you have gone to Dingman Rd you have gone too far.

Safety reasons you are expected to stay together. This will be a shore paddle. Trip is approximately, 6 miles. We may meet for dinner at Torch River Cafe in Eastport. If you have any questions give Ron a call or text.
