Put-in at low water
Put In - Located in Holly Point State Park on New Light Road. Take Six Forks to 98 and cross 98 which becomes New Light Road. Stay on New Light Road until you see the park on the right. Shinleaf park you will pass on the way on the right. I camped in site 121, which is right on the water. Cost is 15 dollars for a non-electric/water site.
Distance/Time - 6.2 Miles/3 hours, 2.8 Miles/2 hours, 4.9 Miles/2 hours
Difficulty - Easy/Average
Trip Directions - Made 3 trips, the afternoon was to Highway 50 boat ramp area. Did a night trip and ran into a many small schools of fish jumping in the water, one landed in the boat. The next morning made a run up to the B.W. Wells Homestead(Rock Cliff Farm).
Scenery - Weather was really nice, but the lake is in sad shape because of the drought.
Hazards - Low water, hardly saw a motor boat at all.
