Kayaking in Warrior's Path

From 2009_June

We've seen this rock cliff from I-81's bridge over the Holston a number of times, and kept saying we'd paddle to it.  We finally got to do it today. 

Can you see me in the above photo?  That's a tall cliff!  Kids were cliff jumping from some other areas along the river, but not from this height.  We had a good chuckle after hearing the first splash - the kid yelled "freeeeezing!".  Yes, the water was colder than we expected. 

We paddled under I-81....

And just along the pretty shoreline....

The water was so flat and the current was mild, so doing an out-and-back from Warrior Path State Park's boat launch was an easy paddle.
