Unloading at the put in.
The river is way down there!

The "Rabbit Hole" path to the put in. Think 60° angle.
River Rd Bridge.
River adventurers Clare and Mike.
Darn nice river.
Cow.
A lot of old downed trees.
A lot of rocky outcroppings.
Very, very few signs of civilization.
Unexpected rock strata. Just flat out gorgeous!
Lunch.
NC 108, Tryon Rd Bridge. Halfway point.
Summer retreat.
Gray's Rd Bridge. About 3/4 point.

These trees will probably be in the water next year.
Union Rd Bridge marks the take out.
A feeding frenzy at the takeout.
