THUNDER BAY — Anyone who's ever struggled to get into a kayak without tipping it over or falling into the water will appreciate what's been installed at the Hazelwood Lake Conservation Area north of the city.
"Essentially you're in the water but you're being supported by the bottom of this launch, so it allows you to get in and out of your kayak with much more ease, and there's almost no risk of tipping," said Ryan Mackett, communications manager for the conservation authority. "It's essentially branded as an accessible launch, so that's really removing some barriers for people who otherwise might have to rely on assistance to be able to go paddle at Hazelwood."
