This paddle trip is usually a trip rating 1  up the east fork of Double Bayou from Job Beason Park to Double Bayou Park.  It is well protected from wind and there is sufficient shade along the route. It is an out and back trip, so no shuttle is needed.  We typically have lunch at the turnaround point (Double Bayou Park).  There are facilities available at both parks for your convenience.  Channel Marker 17 is just down the street from the put-in if anyone wants a cold beer  or burger after the paddle.

 

Let's meet at 10:00 to launch at 10:30am

Driving directionsTake I-10 east across the Trinity River (about 40 miles east of downtown Houston) to FM 563 (exit 810). Take FM 563 south through Anahuac (6 miles).
