Really looking like fall

I expect with the dry autumn we’ve had this year, the leaves around Angler’s Inn are unlikely to get any better than today.

Which is fine, I think the back channel looks splendid in its fall glory today.

It was a bit chillier (low 60s, and I’m sure the water is also gradually cooling off) than the last time I was out but we did get some rain so the level was up a bit to just over 3 feet (3.03).

I did see the heron again, but not long enough to try to get a photo. I also saw a couple other boaters out on the water today.

I’m hoping for a bit more rain before I get out again, today was noticeably less rocky and the Maryland chute a bit more fun to surf across.

Of course, I also hope it’s not too cold for me to want to go out should the river come up a bit :)
