2017 Cottonwood Canoe Trip

The day started out with a storm center rolling in, but it rolled on by after drenching us. The weather radar said an opening was coming up. We launched about 15 minutes late, but had an awesome day on the river. Another shower started just as we were finishing up with our meal in Flandreau State Park in New Ulm.
