wet paddling on Lampasas River. From a precipitation point of view Jones Lake is a relatively normal location; May is the wettest month with most rain, and the driest of the months is January. Get yourself into a kayak and hit Rocky Creek, and if you came to camp Boone RV Park is a good site to do that. This lake is so wonderful.

Lampasas River
 | 2 PHOTOS We own 45 acres on the Lampasas River which follows the river nearly to the bridge on hwy 190. We have created a camping/river access area that we will rent out. Contact me at robert.luthi@gmail.com if interested.... I just floated a 25 mile stretch of the Lampasas river from the hwy190 bridge in kemper to the 195 bridge near florence. It was a very scenic trip but the water levels at this time of year is a little low. All in all it was a good float, but the water could have been a little higher. not too much white water and a lot of downed trees blocking the path. Good easy float. but like i said, it needs more water to be a better ride. David Johnson, SGT US ARMY ... |
Rocky Creek
 | 18 miles away Hi Land Owner, On the offhand chance you may be back to read this, Kayakers are some of the most respectful people in the world. Why would you want to send someone to jail for simply passing thru a navigable stream that runs thru your land? I don't get it. You know, if it's that much of an issue, you could charge people entry or just insist they check in with you first. Most people aren't looking for trouble....This stretch and all others of rocky creek are private. If I see you on the creek you will at the very least go to jail for trespassing.... |
