Me, Scotty, Laurie, Jack, Barbara, Christina (her birthday)
We met up at Piney Creek Campground. The weather was unbelievable for August. It was in the high 80's and blue, blue skies with white puffy clouds. After shuttling vehicles to the take out, we took our kayaks down the ramp. They have a nice, wooden ramp where you can put your kayak into the groove and maneuver it down the fairly steep hill. From here, you have to walk your kayak down a shallow creek which leads into the Piney River. It was an absolutely gorgeous paddle - the water in this river is always so clear and sparkling. We passed a sign that cautioned about 2 upcoming challenging spots. The group of us were all experienced and we had no problems at all. We stopped at a gravel bar, ate and waded into the water. The water was cold! We finished the paddle, admiring the rock bluffs that line this river. We couldn't have asked for a better day!
