Day 3 - Carlyle to Bell (side trip to Ruth Roy)


On the water by 8:30 on a chilly grey morning. Felt like fall. Paddled into a headwind all the way down Johnnie L. Exceptional considering we were paddling east. I got to drop a big tree on Ruth Roy. Still figuring out how to let the bar sit flat but still torque it through the wood. At least it fell where I wanted it to. The Warden took care of the next hazard tree on Johnnie since the site presented us with some unforeseen challenges. Lots of permit checking. Were planning on camping on Deacon/Fox tonight but decided to stick around in order to serve an eviction notice on Bell L. Cans, too many tents and they left the fire going while they were out. Had the pleasure of blowing on it to restart myself. Turned it into a dinnertime enforcement cruise around the lake. Laid 4 tickets tonight in addition to the eviction. Had to get another Warden to come in and help. Good thing we took a longer lunch today.
