I think a Heron. Rosanne took this photo of the guy on our dock at Harrison Bay State Park.

Coming up on Sequoyah Nuclear Power Plant.

Channel on the west side of the power plant. Maybe an old dock? Blue Heron on it.

Sea Spray with some homes in the background. Just across from the Nuclear Plant.

I'm pretty sure they were watching us go by.

Just some trees growing in the water. Cedar maybe?

SeaSpray, C-Traveler and C-Play anchored in a cove off Mud Creek.

Sunbeam and Mystery Girl anchored in another cove off Mud Creek.

My kayak track from C-Traveler over to Mystery Girl and Sunbeam.

Mud Creek

October 3, 2024 in the United States ⋅ ☀️ 68 °F

Got underway from Harrison Bay State Park this morning around 10:30a with four boats, C-Traveler, Sea Spray, C-Play, and Sunbeam. (All four boats C-Dorys. My 25, two 22's and a Tomcat 24.) Caught up with our fifth boat, Mystery Girl (Ranger Tug 23). Slow and pleasant cruise 30 miles upstream to Mud Creek. Only about a knot of current on the bow, and not much debris. Mostly vegetation, and a few tree limbs. Passed by TVA's Sequoyan Nuclear Plant. Anchored in Mud Creek around 4pm. Got our kayaks down and paddled or peddled (I have a Hobie Pedal Kayak) around the creek. Tomorrow we plan to go through the Watts Bar Lock, about 23 miles upstream.Read more
