Julington Creek North Exploration


..Brian Burkett, Natural Resource Recreation Specialist,
 Department of Recreation, City of Jacksonville asked us to 
determine how far north the public could paddle
on Julington Creek North..

..Josh trying out his Dagger Sea Kayak for this trip..

..We were also checking out a downed tree report from 
Bill Armstrong, Team Leader, Sierra Club..
As long as you can paddle around the tree, it stays, we 
always practice the highest measure of conservation...

..the power line crossing, just west of The Palm Leaves
 Regional Park..this view is toward the west...

..the end of the line (for now) we made it about 600 feet north of
 the power line crossing, south of Greenland Road, paddling
 farther north is possible with a bunch of tree cutting. 
We could journey this far north only because of winters
 annual flood stage water level conditions..
