Yahara River --Lake Waubesa to Lake Kegonsa

I did this a few weeks ago.  I thought this would be really nice but it was just okay.  It starts in McFarland at Jaeger Canoe Landing (close to Babcock County Park), goes down the Yahara to Lower mud Lake, then Yahara river again to Fish Camp Launch at Lake Kegonsa.  There were too many power boats, too many houses, just not my favorite place to kayak.

This was even better than last time.  Lots of birds.  I went with Ed.  This is a good one.

Yahara River--Stebbensville to Fulton

This was one of my most favorite rides ever.  The scenery was pretty and the current was swift but not too swift.  There was a fairly strong headwind but the current usually won and it was a pretty fast ride, 6 miles in an hour and 40 minutes.  (I'm pretty slow in general).  I got this route from the book Paddling Souther Wisconsin, which seems to be unavailable online.   It's newly revised so I'm surprised it's already unavailable.   I'm glad I got it when I did.

Here I am getting started.

 Here's the end of the route.  The river is pretty high and the current swift--for the Yahara.

I didn't see too many birds, maybe because it was so windy.
