Wood River

We are doing an up and back paddle, leaving from Alton at 10:00. Bring water and a snack if you’d like. There’s a nice swimming hole along the way

You'll have nice weather for this! Wish it were Wednesday

Could you please give details on that swimming hole?

Dave. There aren’t a lot of landmarks. Paddling upstream for 30 or so minutes you will see an elevated wooden dock on your left. In a few minutes look for two sandy paths on the right on a 180 bend in the River. Take out at the first one and enjoy.

Thanks Zorro. A large dock-shaped object appears on Google at 1.4 miles..
