Comments: Boiling Creek is somewhat narrow and twisty - so the ability to be able to turn your boat is a necessity. This is not a hard paddle, but a bit twisty. Meet at the Wilcox Road Exit 53 on I-10, at the Oasis Truck Stop (on North side of Interstate) at 8:00 AM. We will caravan over - should take about an hour from the truck stop. Bring snacks or lunch and plenty to drink - This trip requires a shuttle, so time will be spent shuttling drivers to their vehicles. Bring rain gear in the event of a rain shower. Temperature is showing low 80's for the day - bring sunscreen in the event of no rain shower. Paddle time will be determined by group size and speed - could be 3 1/2 hours, could be 5 hours. Come and enjoy.
