What a great day Saturday was! The creek level was marginally high, so initially we followed Hemlock Creek upstream. After Vulcan Rock we reversed course and backtracked out. We then hiked to the end the floodplain beyond Button Road Hill and entered Tinker’s Creek. We managed to get to Powers Mill area and hiked back using the north rim trail. Here are some recorded details: Thanks to everyone for a fun adventure in the creek! See you next time.
