The heavy mineral content of the LCR tends to form travertine dams all over the place. Makes things interesting... Pretty much every river trip stops here and takes a swim. The water isn't really warm by any means, but compared to the 45-50 degree water of the Colorado it's like a hot tub.
See that sand? It does that at every camp site, for there is always wind. To quote Ed Abbey: "Sand becomes a part of our existence which, like breathing, we take for granted." On the plus side, you get a free souvenir in the form of a thin layer of fine sand on everything you own!
