Kayak Fishing Rendezvous
The 2nd Annual ARC Kayak Fishing Rendezvous and Chili Cookoff
Sunday, January 12th, 2014 - 10am until 2pm
Mountain men used to come out of the mountains at the end of the season to sell their furs, socialize, trade goods and tell stories at the Rendezvous. Kayak anglers might not have furs to sell, but they know how to eat, trade, and tell stories!
