We reached it in an hour and a half.
We rounded a bend and were on the river right with this bridge just
popping up out of nowhere. Of course, the take-out was on the
river left so we had to cross the current and end in a mad paddling
dash. As I mentioned the
gradient is about 5.0 feet per mile, but the section from
Sinking Creek (through Round Spring) to Big Creek, a distance of 6½
miles, is 10 feet per mile. This was obvious to us as we blew
through this part of the river to our take-out and were unloaded and
ready to go by a little after 9am.
On our way to Akers the day before we dropped a key
and paid
Carr's $35 to shuttle our vehicle from Akers back to Round
Springs. They were very nice! |
