Rowlett Creek

...ayak down to you. The stretch of creek that goes through the golf course and up to Lavon Dr./78 is probably the cleanest and most scenic with pleanty of tree coverage and rock formations on both sides that sort of remind me of parts of the Guadalupe. We have put in where the creek crosses Ben Davis Rd. behind the Firewheel Mall before. The stretch between Lavon Dr./78 and Pleasant Valley Rd. is where you will find the ''whitewater'' including the 3-4 foot drop with optional ''easy way'' to the side. We continued down past Rowlett Rd. and 66 and took out @ Miller Rd. where you usually see people fishing on either side of the street. This strech of river is still flowing but as far scenery it is only trees, cyclists on the bike trails, and an old railroad bridge. You do pass a gun range (right at Pleasant Valley) and the water treatment plant (right after 66) both with their own unique sounds and SMELLS. We have gone all the way to Lake Ray Hubbard before but the stretch between Miller Rd. and the Lake is pretty boring and there is not much flow in the creek at that point. Trav... |
