WARNING! A Marengo paddler recently had his car towed as abandoned in Boone County at Epworth Road while kayaking. A $375 mistake! We’ve heard multiple stories of issues parking on Epworth Rd so please avoid parking there. In general, when parking on road shoulders put a sign or note on your dash saying you are kayaking with a name and phone. This usually informs the sheriff that your car is not abandoned. McHenry County sheriffs have been understanding so far, but as more people kayak the Kish, there could be similar issues.
