Join Compass Point home of Dirty Girl Adventures for a Fall Color Float down the Delaware River to get out on the Kansas River in Lecompton. The Delaware is beautiful in the fall as leaves float down to the River. We will enjoy the changing colors of the leaves along the banks of the Delaware, likely see some Eagles and enjoy some time on the sandbar when we get to the the Kaw. This should be a lazy day of enjoying to sights and sounds of fall while relaxing with a great group of people.
