Salt Creek ohio 4/10/11





Put in North of Lond0nderry Ohio on State RT. 327 at 9:16am and kayaked just past Richmond Dale OH arriving at 5:00pm. The trip goes right through farm land with the hills off in the distance. This sections is great to fish if the water is right, not good today! The water on this section is great for a beginner ending with nice white water at the Old Mill Dam in Richmond Dale. As we came upon the Little Salt Creek we met five other kayakers that said they put in on Little Salt Creek. As you approach Richmond Dale be careful, and observe the white water. You have two choices either go left or right before the old dam. If you like a little white water stay left. WE WENT LEFT! GOOD LUCK! If you like a few ripples go right, but keep in mind that as soon as you come around in the middle you have to go over the Old dam section. WE MADE IT! Keep in mind that the dam has been torn down in the middle. SEE MORE SALT CREEK PICS BELOW

  2. Thanks for looking at my blog. We just went down big Raccoon last week, but I forgot to post. It was a great trip. We put in just below Tyccoon Lake and went to Cora Falls. We are looking at going down Rocky Fork Creek in a few weeks. That trip is nice, but it has a few dams to port around. Stay tuned for that trip and another one that we plan to take soon is down the Hocking. If anyone is interested in going on a trip just let us know?
