I know that part of the river well, I met my wife there on the 4th of July 29 yrs ago. It is not the place it used to be, but the river just keeps flowing.
There was a time when the fishing was great, the white bass used to run well above horse creek, and there were many mink running the banks, I can't tell you how many cat fish we used to catch.
Be careful down there now it is a lawless area. The drug culture has pretty much take that part of the world over.
Love the pictures, there are many interesting caves in the area too.
