Honky Tonk Tuesday

After a very snowy drive down to the south west, we were met by good levels on the Upper Dart and then the East Lynn. Below are a few pictures of the East Lynn a small river that flows into the sea at Lynton. We quickly and quietly jumped in at the small village of Brendon. The river flows through an excellent small gorge, thick of trees! Unfortunately a fair few of the tree’s had found there way into the river that made a couple of the rapids rather exciting. Half way down the Lynn a second river joins in the Hoaroak. The volume goes up and the rapids below are great fun. Really good boulder garden stuff. A quick taxi back to the start and we were on the way home. Not bad for a quiet wintery Tuesday.
