Last night about 130 AM we awoke to the noise of what sounded to be giant hammers on sheet metal. Found out later it was a paper factory and they had WHOLE trees in the equivalent of a washing machine removing the bark. Wow that was loud.
Headed out and had a had a first stop at Lansford canal state park. Met a helpful ranger and enjoyed a nice break in the shade.
Left the park and paddled into what felt like a minefield. It made the asteroid belt look like child's play. Rock after rock after white water. It was a physical and mental exercise in concentration and good luck. Would have been super fun in a little agile boat, the 14 foot plus boats were crashing and catching.
Paddled through fishing creek lake and going to tackle the challenge that is great falls area tomorrow.
Milage totals; trip 190. Day 18
