6/14/2022 - Lake Merwin, Speelyai Park, WA

Time: 3.83 hours

Distance: 10.83 miles

 

Back to Lake Merwin and Speelyai Park for a paddle on Lynda's birthday. The day was cool for June and rain showers came and went through the day. It had been consistently raining for the last week and the runoff had created quite a few waterfalls and new streams into the lake along the way making it a very interesting paddle.

Up a small side-creek. It's hard to see but the creek is rushing down the hill behind.
