Lake Jocassee - June 2007

Dad & I went kayak camping on Lake Jocassee at the end of June 2007. We originally planned two nights out but our trip was cut short by severe thunderstorms rolling through the area. The trip started around midday on Friday. The paddle from the park to the designated camp sites on the other side of the lake is about 2 miles. The next day we paddled around 12 miles looking for waterfalls and feeder rivers and creeks.
