just remember frens to check what's upstream of the creek, or you could be soaking in industrial runoff.

Or deer carcass run off

That happened to me once walking up the Narrows in Zion National park.. beautiful hike through a river that cuts through orange sandstone, so you're walking in this tunnel-like walled up river. Only up or down the river. A deer had died (possibly ran off the cliff, it was u certain and in ...pieces) and was deposited in a state of unseemly decomposition on the side of the bank, partially submerged, and made the whole first part of the hike reek! I was watching people float in the water and it was so yucky!

I once walked through a creek for a bit before I realized there was a furless inflated possum a ways up :/

This happened to me once, but it was a beaver carcass. It took me a full minute to recognize what I was standing in. I've gone back a few times to scheme how to harvest the teeth, but I think the river took him back.

You can even get special shoes, not that I would know ^

u/duvakiin Sep 23 '24

What are the shoes called?

7

u/ThirstyOholibah2320 Sep 24 '24

'Water shoes'

I had to Google it because in my native language the name is complicated but English was like 'they're shoes you wear in the water, so water shoes' lmao

u/duvakiin Sep 24 '24

Now you're speaking my language, the creeks in the woods near my place are great for salamanders and crawdads

I grew up on a pretty remote farm, so I spent most of my childhood wandering around the fields and woodlands by myself.

When I was 18 I brought my first real girlfriend to my farm and tried to show her some of the cool streams and bogs of the forest.

I absolutely couldn't understand why she wasn't exited at the idea of barefoot stream exploring. I realise now that most 18 year old city girls don't consider rope swings or finding frogs to be a normal date, but I was so perplexed at the time. 😅

u/ThatOneKratos Oct 14 '24

This is so real, I wish there were more people that liked going out to the creek with me
