Rock Springs Run

This may be the last time I paddle the upper section of Rock Springs Run until September. School gets out soon.
On the Run from Camp Joy at 11:40.
Considered paddling upstream, but kayakers coming out from Kings Landing (as seen in the above photo) were headed that way, and I could hear more up the Run. So, I went downstream.

With low water, the current is swift, so the less up River paddling I have to do, the better.
