Turkey Creek and Econfina Creek

An unexpected second kayak on the roof as I drove through the Eglin Reservation to the Hippie Hole launch on TUrkey Creek. My friend Frances was towing four kayaks with 3 of her friends in her truck. We were going to meet at the Crestview west area. About 4 miles east of there, I saw them on the side of I-10. Trailer had a flat. Took a while to remove the wheel.Of course, it was removed just as the Road Ranger arrived. It was decided it was better not to have 4 kayaks on the trailed without a spare tire. So, one was put in the back of Frances' pickup and another on my roof.

After running a shuttle to the takeout in Valapariso, we were finally on the Turkey Creek at 12:45. 11:45 Central.

2 more of Frances' friends, who live in the area, joined us. It is good to have folks with local knowedge. Now I know nearby Titi Creek is pronouced, "ty ty" not, "titty"

Turkey Creek is fed by seepage springs and several smaller tributaries, the largest of which is yet another Juniper Creek.
