Elk River Adventures

Join my brother and I as we float down the beautiful Elk River in Elkton, Tennessee, via Elk River Adventures outfitters. This 12-mile trip is easy, scenic and fun! We stopped half-way down and grilled out hamburgers for lunch. Hope you enjoy!

Man I see you had a nice time. Man that is good that you and Alabama float get together and just hit the river for the day. My third son John just got his first kayak so I will be doing the same with him. Man I'm glad you didn't get hurt when you fell. I know that sucks getting all muddy like that. & the lunch look real good man. You didn't save me a plate? Looking all good too man. Looking forward to going kayaking 🚣‍♂️ this weekend with my son since it's going to be in the 90s it going to be nice going kayaking.🚣‍♂️ great video man thanks for sharing

Thanks, Mack! Yes it was a nice relaxing day and lunch was really good on the water. I did get a little muddy, but I'm just glad I didn't seriously injure myself... It was close! Hope you got to get out and kayak with your son this weekend. That sounds like a great time!!

Hi, you surprised me that I inspired you :) in 8:17. Such a distance and we can interact with each other (Alabama - The Czech Republic). Amazing! I really like it, peace, quiet, relaxation, river, nature, my canoe, nice friends and good food :). Sometimes I have to try your burgers! Stay safe! David PT

Yes, it is amazing that we can enjoy each others adventures half-way around the world! So cool!! Thanks for watching, but especially thanks for getting out there and making great videos for everyone to enjoy (including delicious food)!! Stay safe, my friend! Dan SP

Great videos. Do you know if Elk River Adventure’s is still open ? Google says they are permanently closed.

[@SouthernPaddler]

Thank you! Yes, sadly, they have closed up shop for good to spend more time with family. It's a shame, but I can't blame them.

Now that was an awesome paddle! I almost took that same Friday off. That food coma is a tough river condition to fight off.🤣🍔🤣🍔 Excellent work on this. Definitely have to check out the Elk River!🤝🏽

[@SouthernPaddler]

Lol- I learned a valuable lesson about overeating! 😂 Thanks, Jon!! 👍👊🤝

[@bigmike9845]

What kind of canoe do you have and where can I get one

[@SouthernPaddler]

It's a Rogue River 14. I don't think they make them anymore. I bought mine last fall off of Facebook marketplace. I just wanted something fairly cheap and local... And this one was both! 😁
