Rock Creek Launch Site

Posted by Slackwater - Don (Spokane, United States) on 23 July 2012 in Landscape & Rural.

This crude and tiny boat launch site is on the Rock Creek which runs from Bonnie Lake to Rock Lake about four miles (6.4k) south down this stream. Small boats, short kayak-like boats can navigate this stream up to Bonnie Lake or down (as in this picture) to Rock Lake.

The angle of view carries such a strong sense of being there . . I can almost feel the mud on my feet !

Those must be very small kayaks. I can see "Scuffy Tugboat" maneuvering this little creek, but not much more. Thanks for sharing. : )

Sieht fast so aus als wenn die Trockenheit dort auch schon Einzug gehalten hätte.
Sehr schöne Landschaft.

The creek is well placed in the frame to make it the major element and to draw the viewer into the rest of the scene.
