Buckhorn Creek
Spillway
Blown Up Raft
Packraft in Backpack
It has been a few months since I used my raft since it has been raining a lot and I have been using my hard boat. This past Saturday though, water was low so I was able to do some exploring with my packraft. I ended up hiking about a mile to my local lake’s spillway. I had to wade another quarter mile or so through the creek and under a neat tunnel under the railroad before I reached the deeper water at the spillway. Did a quick cliff jump and then headed downstream to the next bridge with a quick pack up of my raft into my backpack and walk back to my car. Was a bit more hiking than rafting, but so cool to have the portability of the packraft to do mini adventures like this. I look forward to more trips like this and am thankful that there is this affordable option to go on adventures most won’t be able to do.
