West Fork of the White is good. Should have water.

Valpo-

That is a tough corner of the state. Start here-

You could think about a run to South Bend, play on the East Race (use
the duckies they rent). Also in that area, you could paddle the St.
Joe down to St. Pat's park, or maybe to Niles. Big river, but should
move fast.

South of Valpo, look at Deer Cr., Camdem to Delphi. Wildcat Cr. Maybe
drive down to Sugar Cr., further drive, but very pretty. You could
head back East on the toll road, get off at Sturgis exit, paddle the
Fawn or Pigeon rivers. Again, involves some drive time.

Not familiar with the Kankakee- sorry. That might be just the one
you need.

email me direct if there is anything else I can do for you. I might
be able to find you a Kankakee savy paddler.

We'll be traveling from FL to visit Valparaiso and Muncie in the next
couple of weeks and plan to lug our canoe along for whatever time on
the water we can find between there and home. While in Muncie we
thought that we would try the west fork of the White River. Can anyone
recommend some good day trips around Valpo?
Thanks,
