ALLEGHENY RESERVOIR

I like this kayak trip since no shuttle is required. You start and end at Willow Bay Campground.

After leaving the bay you head south, paddle as long as you want and find a campsite. There are also some established campgrounds with picnic tables, fire rings and vault toilets. That’s too fancy for us. We usually avoid these and find a nice site we will have to ourselves.

This is north of Kinzua Dam, our other trips have been south of the dam where the river is running
Beautiful day to be on the water
Pretty good view from camp
It was very foggy the next morning
After about an hour the fog burned off and we had a blue sky day

2012

The reservoir was a lot more crowded during our visit in the summer of 2020, curious to see what this year will be like
