A marshy landing
August 14, 1999

The landing point was a bit muddy, but all got safely ashore. The first boats arrived a little after noon, and the last boats got in about 4 PM. Most paddlers left their boats and went to the festival, or took the shuttle back to Eddyville to get their cars. It was just amazing to see 120 boats all lined up along the shore.
