Difficulty is finding parking on a busy Fathers Day at Pearce Estate Parking, so we unloaded along the grass area next to the park gate, a gravel road that led us toward our launch. Remember to bring your wheels, it's a long hike with a canoe.
There is a boat ramp at the end of the Harvie passage eddies, separated by the land. A very nice place to wait for the car shuttle drivers.
We launched at 5:30 pm, arriving at Fish Creek boat launch at 8:30 pm. A very nice paddle with some opportunities to practice eddy turns and steering straight to a surprise under a bridge, (sorry can't remember the name),of 2 foot high swells. My partner, an 11 year old boy experienced the fresh water on his face through here. The bridge was near the beginning of the adventure.
