jacks fork river, kayaking, missouri, stream team

eminence to two rivers

Today we participated in our first ever Stream Team river cleanup. For someone as competitive and OCD as I can be, this was an experience for everyone who was with me.

My big find that I couldn’t fit on my kayak.
This also wouldn’t fit on my kayak…
plus I wasn’t strong enough to lift it anyway.
And this might be in poison ivy central,
so I let it lay.

I did load a lot of stuff on my kayak though. At one point John told me to just stop, because I was lagging too far behind.

I crossed two sets of rapids and did some climbing to snag the inner tube.

It was a good day – although, any day on the river is a good day!
