Rancocas State Park N Branch Post Solstice Flood Scouting Report: Paddle Safe. Boils or percolating eddies, cross currents, mobile eddies are robust. Safe Paddling. Don’t paddle alone, Leave a Float Plan, Wear your PFD. Paddle Beyond the Paddle
Summer Solstice 2019. “Normally” we would be on Rancocas Creek celebrating summer solstice. Good solstice vibes are helping folks out as water drains from flood.  This sort of celebration is better then any other.
Down at Melpine Landing in Rancocas State Park. Tip of the hat to the folks who left behind empty water and beer bottles and full tube of sun tan lotion. A few things its illegal to drink BOOZE in a NJ State Park. The Landing is heavily patrolled. I would say take your empty’s at least and put them in the garbage pail in the office. However some witless moron(s) unscrewed the office sign. Note to self. Stewardship is the responsibility of all visitors on the Rancocas Creek. You are accountable to yourself, then others and then law enforcement. Access is a privilege. Treat it as such. Sweeping vandalism under the rug is not the Face of Access on the Rancocas Creek. Take nothing but photos, Leave but a wake behind.
