So. What exactly is Big Paddle?

The Ridgefield Big Paddle began in 2012 to celebrate the efforts of many to create this water trail resource. The first Big Paddle was on June 2, 2012. Big Paddle is traditionally held on the first Saturday in June as part of National Trails Day.

The flotilla travels 2.5 miles North on Lake River, past the wildlife refuge, to the Columbia River, and back to the Port of Ridgefield launch for a 5-mile round trip.
