From Wednesday May 14 until Sunday May 18 we attended the spring campout and paddle at Hanging Rock State Park with the Lumber
River Canoe Club. Members of the LRCC converge at HRSP in the spring and again in the fall every year for a long weekend of camping, partying and paddling on the Dan River. The Dan River is a jewel. It is scenic and relatively unspoiled. There are tall rocky bluffs and the rhododendrons were blooming. There are no
real rapids, but there are enough turns, riffles and ledges to keep it interesting. Best of all it is only about 25 miles from our house. During the week Dorcas and I paddled tandem on two days, and I paddled solo in
Dorcas' Bell Wildfire on three other days. Five straight days of paddling on the upper Dan River. Heaven. To read Don's trip report click
