Default Kayaker drowned in Sylvan lake- found
Anyone heard any more about this?

I am thinking of going with my big boat, need to know if I can get it in and out for sure.

If I go, would anyone come with to spot? 4-5 more people would be good, with binoculars, sharp eyes.

edit- they are now saying they have enough boats, so it may not happen

They have just confirmed they are looking for drones for recovery search, I would need a spotter. Is there anyone in the area that could assist? I am coming from PV through camrose, wetaskiwin and south.
