Click the Map and the pictures for a larger view.
We took a 42 miles trip on the Juniata River from Newton-Hamilton down to Port Royal.We assembled at Juniata River Advantures which we used for a canoe and shuttle.Bill Baldwin, Bill Yacovissi, Bob Alspaugh, Mike Reilly, and Joe Murphy set off on our annual June canoe trip. |
|
It was a very nice day and the water was high which gave us a nice current for paddling. |
|
Was saw a bald eagle along the river. |
|
|
Joe paddled the kayak which I'm happy about as I'm not sure I could have paddled the 22 miles to camp. |
We stopped for lunch along the river. The usual cheese sandwitches. |
|
|
Back on the river Bill and Bill take a break. |
We camped at Waterside Campgound along the river.We rented a couple of RV sites so we were a little out of place in our tents but it was a nice and comfortable place to camp. |
|
|
Bill pitched his tent on the flats along the river. |
The rest of us stayed on the shelf where the RVs were. |
|
|
There was a beautiful sunset.Mike has captured a nice arty picture of the setting sun light on the leaves. |
Next day was cloudy and blustery but no rain so it was cool paddling to the end. |

Take out at Juniata River Adventures. |
