Finally some rain to rise the river levels up. You must take advantage of these occurrences. So here we are floating on the Deep River, Ramseur to Coleridge, one of my old haunts, yet one I have not paddles for over 2 years. Access is on private land and if the landowners get tired of putting up with lots of disrespectful trespassers, they have every right to limit access to their property.
River level is 2.4 at the Ramseur gauge. No problems with any of the rapids today. We spot a couple otters, a beaver and a raccoon. That a bad day at all. On the bird side, we see the usual suspects, Kingfisher, many many Ducks - Woodies, some Canadas and one huge GB Heron.
This heron led us down the river for several miles.

enjoyed your photos of your latest outdoor adventures. I was thinking how nice it was today to be on a trail in the Smokys. Kayaked yesterday with 29 members of our meetup on Trammel and Drakes Creek, a 6 mile paddle, it was very nice saw a turtle sunning himself, but didn't take pics on this one. That is an impressive building where you had first aide training. thanks for sharing, deb
