#2253 "Dumoine Ledges Rocky Pool"

This was the first day of the Canadian Parks and Wilderness Society (CPAWS) supported DRAW (Dumoine River Art for Wilderness) for 2019.

After completing #2252 "Dumoine Chute Below the Ledges" I simply turned around to look more northward upstream across the ledges. The swimming is very rocky in this basin but there is a great potential for a very forceful shower under the waterfall to the left that I painted. The roar of the rapids fills the air with sound and mist. The location was refreshing in many ways. I was bathing in both the Dumoine forest and the Dumoine mist.

I was still standing in the shade of the cedars and munching on blue berries. There were just a few large horse flies doing the biting thanks to Dragonfly Wingman. The horse flies prefer your skin to be wet right after coming in from a swim. After you dry off the horse flies were not even a big problem. Otherwise life is very good.
