I might have to try to upload the video... although the phone condom squeaking is more audible than the mud slurping, unfortunately! (._.)

The silt washes down easy... the stains from my water supply, not so much! x-D

Hah! The overloading my backup storage space was happening too, but this was more about the sun doing crazy things with the camera's perception of the scene! :D

Maybe one third silt, two thirds water? :love:

OhMyGoddess I do try to be careful about that! Another reason to bring others along with me! :love:

Photo: 05-28 Walking in my own footsteps 10/11/24report

I am, 100%! I kinda always thought I really wanted to go back home to New England... but a few weeks back I realized I really love my river here, even more than some of my past rivers in this state and back where I'm from. :kiss:

Photo: 05-22 ...and there's river underneath!10/11/24report

Thanks! :kiss:

And there's shy me, ducking and covering from a couple people walking just downriver, immediately followed by a boat going upriver on the far shore... hah! :D

Photo: 05-28 Walking in my own footsteps 10/11/24report

The river is pretty hard to miss... x-D

Photo: 05-22 ...and there's river underneath!10/11/24report

It did! I love it! Went back there tonight, so there'll be another set coming up as soon as this one is done! :kiss:

How do you get silty mud out of your hair?

User: tsarmina10/11/24report

*giggle*

Photo: 05-28 Walking in my own footsteps 10/11/24report

It's hard to get the perspective, and I'm sure I arched a bit, but... I'm at close to a 45 degree angle, leaning back, with the silt keeping me from landing on my ass! x-D

Photo: 05-40 Leaning back for a smile10/11/24report

This was constant back and forth, churning the mud with both legs together, and leaning back pretty far too! :kiss:

Photo: 05-39 So close!10/11/24report

I was wiggling whole legs and feet! Churning that up good! :loveeyes:

I kinda love that - stepping into a water-filled former footstep! :love:

Photo: 05-29 They fill up so quickly 10/11/24report

I need to bring you two along so I can play in deeper mud! x-D

Photo: 05-28 Walking in my own footsteps 10/11/24report

Yay! :splosh:

Photo: 05-31 Straight to the top 10/11/24report

Yes! Oh! You can see the mark that deeper quicksand left when I tried to climb out there! :love:

Photo: 05-27 Rentry: dry10/11/24report

You got the reference! :loveeyes:

Photo: 05-26 The last step was the deepest 10/11/24report

The wet spot up close to the right? That looked innocent and dry, and was the wettest, deepest quicksandy quicksand in this section.

My guess? The stream centered here when it flowed, and carved away the softer ground, which later settled with the silty sandy quick stuff. But just a guess.

Photo: 05-25 First round footsteps 10/11/24report

There's suction at depth, but... kinda a depth-limited quicksand, with a dry top layer. :loveeyes:

Photo: 05-24 A painted boot10/11/24report

Oh, no! The flood height was maybe 10 feet or more above the ground level. It's probably the more common water level, though?

Photo: 05-22 ...and there's river underneath!10/11/24report

Yes! The water just filters through all that sandy silt! :loveeyes:

Photo: 05-20 Now this is a surprise!10/10/24report

I kinda always thought I really wanted to get back home to New England... but I realized recently I really do love my river here. I loved my other rivers too, but this one... maybe a bit more? :love:

Photo: 05-14 My river, she is low10/10/24report

Yes! That was the deep mud that destroyed the zip in the last pair of boots! Well... where I noticed the zip fail, anyway!

Closer to quicksand... but if I said that, it would be a spoiler. Oops! :D
