This is our route. I think we probably paddled about 10 miles. When we got back towards the car I was not quite ready to stop so I followed Benewah Creek for a bit. It is a very winding narrow passage between the cattails and horsetails that twists and turns. I would love to paddle it sometime just as the sun in coming up. Oh, and as an addendum, I tried to upload a video that I took but Blogger kept erroring it. At one point along the river where it was really quiet and cool, I could hear this cacophony behind me on the hillside. It was this amazing sound of screeching and carrying on and I the only thing I can think of it that it is a heron rookery that I could not see. It was one of those magical moments of the water, birds chirping, a frog croaking and this wild noise behind the trees. The day was so magical and left me feeling more content that I have felt in a very long time. | |
