Kayaking, rafting and canoeing enthusiasts are in for a treat this weekend with the official opening of the city's new Morgan Mill Road River Access Area.“All the site amenities are in, and it looks like we're going to have nice weather it's a facility that's ready to go,” said Carson City's Park Planner Vern Krahn.Final touches on the park benches, picnic tables, trash cans and porta-potties were just completed Friday morning, he said.In addition, the concrete boat ramp is now open for rafting on the Carson River. The ramp offers a take-out point for Class I and II trips down the Aquatic Trail from Carson River Park, a 3.3-mile float for canoes, kayaks and small rafts.
