Put In - Located at the Upper Barton Creek boat ramp on Six Forks Road. Put in on the right side of the boat ramps. Another run at night with a half moon to beat the heat.
Distance/Time - 8.8 miles/3 hours 30 minutes
Difficulty - Difficult because of a night paddle.
Trip Directions - I decided to head to the Shinleaf camping area. Found an access road up to the Osprey Nest group camp and then hiked the road up to the main restroom at the entrance to Shinleaf. The Osprey nest was not active, but the one down near Blue Jay Point was. I also ran into a group of kayakers which I think were from the Carolina Kayak Club doing their weekly Tuesday night paddle.
Scenery - Saw deer, beavers, egrets, raccoon, and various birds. It was an active wildlife evening.
Hazards - Motor boats were not that bad on a Tuesday evening.
