Salmon River - Page 1 of 1

The next afternoon, we went to a swimming hole on the Salmon River, up in the mountains northeast of Orleans.

This is the Salmon River, looking upstream from a bridge (you'll see the bridge in a later picture).   This is the river, looking downstream from the bridge. You can see Wooley Creek joining the Salmon River.

This is the underside of the bridge, viewed from the trail to the riverbank swimming hole.   After we left the swimming hole, we drove a short distance into the mountains to a point that overlooked Wooley Creek.

[Water snake in river]   [Black Jack]
At one point, we saw a water snake swimming in the river at the swimming hole.   The people we were visiting in Orleans had a dog named Black Jack, or just Jack for short. He liked to go swimming, too.
