Walking the SR

Pretty much all the way from Altmar to Frazier's under summer flows.
Not sure if walking the shore rocks is good for your neck or the wife though.
 

The wife can handle it fine she is in cross fit a few times a week, way better shape than me.   The neck is doing ok and I have been doing 3 to 5 miles a day on the road and cross lots at the farm, but I hear you about the rocks , I may just stay on the paths.   Looking for some walking with scenery , it gets boring doing the same loop every day and for all intense purposes I cannot drive yet so I thought I would get the wife to take me up there.  The path in Pineville is pretty wide and smooth in most places may try that.  Thanks all

There's a series of trails out behind the Museum that go up to the far end behind Stoney's, or go down the other way behind Sportsman's where we went.  The trail going east out of the lot actually goes through forest and field before cutting down to the river.  With a little rock hopping you can go through the LFZ  to the upper. Cross on to the island, go up to bottom of Paradise. You can try to spot some Skamanias.  I hooked one mid-Aug about 5 years ago. Got some great jumps before it spit me.  It'd be a good time to explore the upper and check out some of the good spots.  It's a pretty walk in there from the lot and through the Hemlocks. It's the prettiest stretch of river to me.

Clint that sounds like a pretty good walk about right there..
I Too was going to suggest the LFZ to the top.. Said it many times that the secret spot was my fav also before it got pucker bush creeked..
Save the coin on the mold.. Take the walk along that stretch and you may (should ) find plenty of tackle.. Bring clippers and a knife..
Plan B is to have someone, or take a trip to CT... I went there on a lead run 5 or so years ago and bought 1lb of bb ,3/0, 7 and yes #5's.. Still have over 1/2 of each.. Sucking lead fumes is not worth the hassle..

LFZ to UFZ
 was getting to be tops on the list too.

Thanks HT, going by what you say it is really not worth it.  Shame to not pick it up and reuse it.  I will   probably just 'donate' it to the guy up the road and let him deal with it. 

Jack have enough for now, thanks for the offer if I get in a bind I will let you know.  If I hit a good spot up there I can usually be set for a while.  I found a spot where lead was funneled up there last year and there must have been over 100 shot in one spot.
