That was fun, by several second-magnitude springs (Pot, Tanner, etc.) and first-magnitude Madison Blue Spring, as well as several islands (Turtle Rock, Chervil, and Madison Blue), as well as a few tiny rapids. Fish jumped and the paddlers were pleased, on our way from Florida Campsites Ramp to Allen Ramp..

Thanks to Gee Edwards for leading this one.
