We take a 18 foot Alumacraft and yeah it takes a bit of practice but you can get it down pretty quick.

You won't even notice the current. That is a great area for a 5 year old.

I'm thinking of doing Hog Creek with our 5 year old for her first trip. my questions is this.....What is the current like going back up Hog Creek on your way back to the entry point?

Just curious as I begin to formulate this trip.

Thanks!
