The Charles River

News and notes about my haphazard kayak journey through the entire length of the Charles River, between Boston Harbor and Echo Lake in Hopkinton, Massachusetts. Note: Mileage listed below corresponds to mileage listed in Ron McAdow’s book, “The Charles River: exploring nature and history on foot and by canoe”
