canoe FAQ

Canoe FAQ
"Where do I get a boat, and where do I paddle"
* Lake Borundi Foothills Park, Palo Alto. Must be with a Palo Alto resident for entry to park. Small lake, good for a family outting, with frogs, redwing blackbirds, and a small island. Very few people.

*Stevens Creek Reservoir, Cupertino. Small, but no motor boats, Popular for fishing too. Can be crowded summer weekends.

*Lexington Reservoir, Los Gatos. Very Accessible, No power boats. Isolated canyons where very few boats venture, and, when the lake is very full, a bayou-like area near the south end. Better conditions when the lake is holding more than 8000 acre feet. A full circuit is about 4.5 miles. (Thanks to Jerry Hawkins for this description).
