We have a few different options for this weeks paddle at Hazelwood Lake.
Map of Hazlewood Lake

Routes and distance are outlined below.
From the boat launch:

  1. paddle around the entire lake – 10 km
  2. paddle around the islands - 6.5 km
  3. paddle around the islands then cross under Hazelwood Drive to the dam and back – 8 km

We can paddle from the boat launch to the first island and decide from there if we would like to continue around the lake or circle the islands.

Getting There:
Hazelwood Lake Conservation Area is approximately a 20 minute drive from Thunder Bay.

Follow Dawson Road (Highway 102) past County Fair Plaza to Hazelwood Drive. Turn right on Hazelwood Drive and follow it to the end at Hazelwood Lake Conservation Area. You’ll see the boat launch on your left.

Time:
6:30 - Meet at the Hazelwood Drive boat launch (red star on the map)

For anyone who hasn’t been to Hazelwood before we can meet in the County Fair Plaza parking lot (by the TD Bank) at 6:00 and drive out together.

Weather Forecast:
High: 20°C, Low 10°C
Scattered showers
Wind: NW 5 km/h

The water is still pretty chilly so make sure you bring a sprayskirt and all your safety gear.
