Kayaking - Eleven Point River

Kayaking - Eleven Point River                                             7 miles

We got up at 6:00 a.m. to move the camper to our new campground - Eminence Cottages and Cabins.  It's a bit closer to town and even has cell service.  We packed up the trailer in record time - about 20 minutes.

We drove to Hoffstetler Outfitters, loaded up the boats and headed to the Whitten access.  I'm not sure how long the drive was, but it was a long, bumpy dirty ride and our boats were coated with red dust by the time we got to the river.  That's OK - we are about to give them a bath!  It was an absolutely lovely day with temperatures in the high 70's and 82 degrees when we ended.  The water had a good flow, sparkling clear and vibrant blue skies with many white clouds.  It was actually a very uneventful day, unlike the last time we paddled this river.  We stopped at Boze Mill springs and couldn't have asked for a better lunchtime view.  Half a mile down the river from there is a Class II small waterfall.  Christina kept up her tradition by falling into the river.  This time she had all her accessories well tied down, and two fishermen were able to pick her up and carry her part way down the river towards her boat which William had rescued.  It was maybe a mile or a mile and a half to the Riverton Boat Access and when we got out, we were all bemoaning that it was too short of a trip!
