Continued down from upper section looking for a camping spot after Flintstone. Had to go a few miles to find a nice gravel beach that was not next to pasture or within sight of a farm house. Flow at USGS gauge was 275 cfs in the morning, which was just fine with loaded canoes. The gradient was 5 to 10 fpm, and provided great fishing and rapids all day. Found a nice secluded camping spot after an island 21 miles downstream from Flintstone. The pullout after the Town Creek Aqueduct was muddy and the portage to the parking was steep but good footing.
