Flat Water

• Courses used for some San Rafael Races (whether they are “flat” or not also depends on the weather)
• Local Lakes
  • Always take care with cold water and most years you need to take adequate precaution for dealing with water that is quite cold in the winter. Smaller, shallower reservoirs warm up considerably in the summer, while large deep lakes such as Lake Tahoe will be cold year around.
