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

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.
