Canoe Trip #4


Here's a few photos of our fourth canoe trip in our new canoe.





Location: French Creek from Wattsburg to Union City Dam (Leg #2)
Date: September 29, 2002
Conditions: 70 degrees, sunny, perfect weather.
Flow Rate: 75, average for this day over past 26 years, 65





Getting ready
Josh, Adam, Ray, Jen and me ready to shove off in Wattsburg.

Nice muddy creek shot with some cool trees about to become next years hazards.
Cruisin along
What a peaceful way to spend an afternoon, cruising down the creek.

Jen poses for left oblique shot as we glide along smoothly.
Dunk time
Never fails, at some point Adam is going to tip the canoe. I think he does it intentionally, but he says no.

And here we are at the end in the Union City Dam basin. Right before this area is a huge eagles nest on the right. We didn't see the eagle(s) this time but will definitely try again. Not much water in here this time of year.

This was a nice trip, not too long and not too short. It was a little shallow in several places and we had to portage around some fallen trees, but other than that the day was pretty uneventful.
