We kayak/canoe camped the beautiful Namekagon river from Hayward Wisconsin to Trego Wisconsin on the Saint Croix National scenic river way. This is about a 30 mile paddle. What a great river, it has some good riffles and even a few class 1 rapids interspersed with some slack water. The campsites are really nice. They are all free and first come first serve sites. The group sites are the best. They have the most room, fire pits, toilets and picnic tables. Even if you do not have a group, it is ok to camp there if it is unoccupied.
We seen many eagles and ospreys and a lot of beaver huts. We parked at Jacks canoe rental which also doe's shuttles and got shuttled with our boats and all our gear to Hayward landing. I highly recommend Jacks canoe rental. They were super cool and provided us with a shuttle on our arrival! Can't wait to go back, as there are 5 total sections to do. The mosquitos were horrible but we were fully prepared. I think I will go back in fall when they are gone and the leaves are changing color!
