An annual activity of the Mulder gathering at Platte Lake is our canoe trip down the Platte River. But in the middle of August, every visitor to northern Michigan has the same idea and the river is packed with canoes, kayaks and inner tubs. This past week we did the Platte River trip with our Kalamazoo College friends and it was our most peaceful trip ever. The weather was perfect, 79 degrees and sunny on October 8th, the trees were in full color and the salmon were running. But the best part of the trip was the quiet and peacefulness of the river. We only saw about ten other paddlers the entire 1 1/2 hour trip.
The Mulders will have to coordinate a fall Platte River canoe trip!!
