2011-07-10: Rented a canoe to paddle from High Springs to a bridge seventeen miles down the river. There was some low water and portaging at the beginning followed by a huge downpour lasting about an hour. We camped out at the Blue Springs. The water coming from the springs was perfect for swimming.
