- Time on the water- 30 minutes
I was out exploring for a place to let in my kayak. I tried the Isinglass river but the water level was too low. I tried a few small lakes close by. All was unsuccessful. So I explored. I found a road where the map showed where there was no road. I did find a launch that the map showed was in the middle of the woods at the end of a road that allows only one car moving down the road at one time unless one of the car pulled off to the side of the road. The road was about a mile long.
When I got to the end I saw a small pond with hikers and people on a nearby rock having lunch. There was not a single house on the pond. On the other side of the pond was people doing rock climbing. I put the kayak in the water after carrying it only 50 feet.
The water looked clear and felt warm. I took the kayak around the lake. It was short but one of the nicer excursions in the kayak. When I got back it was nice. I asked local people people if there was fishing and they said there was some fly fishing. It was a great time in the wilderness.
