This stream is really small and can only be paddled after locally heavy rain. Most of the rapids are in the first half mile and a few more when you join up with the main fork of Blakely creek.
De Roche creek nearby is a better run but this would make a good chaser or a good intro to creek paddleing....

Lake Sylvia Campground

This place holds many wonderful memoriers for me, with my family. This is where I learned to swim and many wonderful picnics. I was a Scout Leader and in the late sixties took my Scout Troop every summer to the Girl Scout Camp. My Great Aunt Nancy Quinn worked in the kitchen and we all had so much fun.. Just wanted to share a wonderful memory.....
