I took Daniella for a paddle on the Passaic. It was supposed to be sunny and mid 60′s but when we hit the water it was foggy and mid 40′s. There hasn’t been much rain lately so the water level was quite low and there wasn’t much flow. We got in the water and started slowly downstream. After going under Route 280 it was a bob and weave trying to get around the blow-downs in the water. Shortly after heading into Essex County Park we came to a blockage. I may have tried it on my own, and maybe portaged on my own, but not with Dani. Besides, she was already complaining that her butt hurt so we turned around and headed back. All in all the trip was about 3.5 miles and took us about an hour and a half.
