Gravel Road

This is near that strange hairpin turn, and a boat launching area, where I went swimming in the morning.

Lows Ledge

I'm now about halfway between Lows Lower Dam and Lows Upper Dam, as the ledge reflects beautifully into the lake. It's a very spiritual thing for sure, paddling along through this lake.

Litter

I was not happy to find this pile of garbage mixed in with the ashes from a fire that somebody had built down at Horseshoe Lake. I got on my gloves, picked up the litter, tossed it in my trash bucket and it got burnt with the rest of camp trash the next day. I wish people weren't such litter bugs.
