We did our usual Rollins-Floodwood-Fish Creek paddle today, with a bit of a twist. We went with friends so we had a second car, which we parked near where we took out. We put in at Rollins Pond and paddled into Floodwood, with some difficulty. There was a beaver dam in the stream which W pulled me and himself over; the other two did the carry which I didn't even realize was there. Then down Fish Creek, stopping at our usual place for lunch.
I measured exactly 6 miles to the end of Fish Creek. But instead of stopping there we went through Square Pond as usual and stopped at a vacant camp site, for a total paddling distance of about 7 1/4 miles. The car was parked nearby so we retrieved the second car, packed up and headed out. It was a beautiful day.
