Willamette River overnighter

Friday of last week Calvin, Brody, Kirk, Scott, and Cory left from Wallace Marine Park in Salem and kayaked down the Willamette River. We had a wonderful time enjoying the evening of the river. We passed by Keizer River Rapids Park and stopped at the first island we saw. We ended up finding a perfect location for our camp site. Once we made a path through the brush we found an area full of rocks and sand. We leveled some areas for our tents and made camp. Cory made us a great fire pit and started a fire, we cooked hot dogs, hot chocolate, and Mountain Men meals. We had smores and talked around the campfire. There was plenty of wood to be found so we had a fire on Friday night and Saturday morning. We got up Saturday morning, Kirk and Calvin fished for a while. Heath our friend joined us for our trek down to Wheatland Ferry. Along the way we saw a total of 6 Bald Eagles, 2 deer, and tons of blue heron. Calvin enjoyed fishing and almost caught two fish and was fairly close to getting wet reeling in one of them! We want to do this trip again we had a wonderful time!!!
