Paddling Cranberry Lake

It continues to be very hot and humid here so we have not been exercising outside very much.  The winds today were forecast to be "light and variable" so we left early this morning for a paddle on Cranberry Lake.  We put in at Wanakena as usual and assumed we were headed for Dead Creek Flow.  We stopped first at Black Duck Hole.  This beautiful view is looking back out of that bay.


We then decided it was too hot to do the entire paddle of 13-14 miles necessary to paddle to the end of the flow.  Instead, we explored the many islands shown at the upper right on the map, then paddled back to the car, for a total of about 10.5 miles.  That was enough in the heat.
