Since we only had a 14 mile trip to our planned anchorage, we took our time getting started and left our slip at 10 a.m. It was a beautiful trip upriver with the wind blowing from the northeast behind us at 10-20 mph.
Rock Piles was so named because of three large rock formations which flank the opening into the anchorage. Once we were anchored, "Reflection" and "Falkor" began to swing in various directions instead of heading into the wind. This was caused because of the wind swirls in this bowl-shaped cove surrounded by high trees. Despite this effect, it was a beautiful spot that proved to be a safe and serene location for both of us.
