    batsto above lower forge

    The water levels on the Batsto from Hampton Furnace are always good. It's a very deep basin. Right now the Skit would be too shallow in spots, wait for some rain. Also, the boot camp put in a foot bridge over the Skit, a felled cedar tree with 2x somethings screwed to it. Ed

    We did the Mullica just below Atsion Lake to the beaver pond on Saturday. Plenty of water but a big downed maple was blocking the way. No way around, had to hoist the kayaks over it.

    Raccoon Hanging From a Tree
