CAUTION!
This VISION GUIDE is not a NAUTICAL CHART or NAVIGATIONAL TOOL. No warranties or representations are made as to the accuracy of the information contained herein. The publisher disclaims all liability for injuries resulting from reliance on this VISION GUIDE.
It is essential that any canoe/kayak trip based upon this VISION GUIDE be developed by an experienced planner who can identify the risks and hazards of the trip and determine whether the canoeist or kayakers have an appropriate level of skill and experience and the proper equipment for the trip. Unpredictable conditions, high winds, and fluctuating water levels may occur throughout the trip. For example, the Detroit River, a major international waterway, poses danger to small watercraft from large ships which navigate its waters, and has a strong downstream current (towards Lake Erie). Canoeing and kayaking can be dangerous and should be undertaken with care. Canoeists and kayakers should utilize appropriate navigational charts and follow all safety precautions, including wearing personal floatation devices at all times.
