Blackwater Creek

On the water at 12:46
Paddle upstream, hoping after Thursday's deluge, I could make it to the Iron Bridge.
It was very difficult to get through the vegetaion blockage. I carried some away and tossed it on the bank upstream.

I started out paddling up the River. The heavy rain on Thursday allowed be to paddle where I had not been able to for months.

No kayaking on Thursday, August 6 due to heavy rain. A kayak did float in the back yard. Empty. I got in, it did not move. The second day without kayaking in 2026. 10 since the first week of March, 2024.
