Great day for paddling down river with a friend. We spent 6 hours on "fish creek" and had an amazing day. We started out at trestle road in Camden and finished at fish creek landing road in McConnellsville. Deep forest kayaking.. highlight of the day was flushing a goshawk and watching how fast they can disappear and quickly maneuver into dense trees. this was only the second time in my life I can definitively say I say a Goshawk...amazing.
