    We enjoyed a peaceful paddle down the beautiful Brule River! Saw 2badult and one juvenile Bald Eagle, many Kingfisher, two white Swans, a Hawk, two Cedar Waxwings, and lots of Fish! The three of us are in our 60s, and with a short 30 minute break it took us over 6 hours to do the "easy" Stone bridge to Winneboozhoo. If you haven't paddles before or it's been a while, consider the 2 hour trip!
