Day Six — Wednesday October 31, 2012
Suwannee River Rendezvous Resort and Campground to Ivey Memorial Park
Another short "sprint" of
15 miles this day. We have our rest
stop nearly ten miles into the
day's adventure, but it is well worth
it, as we take a break for our final cookout/barbecue at
Little River Springs, currently a Suwannee
County Park, but soon to be an additional
property of the Florida Park Service.
This site is popular with cave and
cavern divers.

The spring is the entrance to a cave system more than
1,200 feet long and 100 feet deep. After visiting this picturesque location,
the final five miles will be a breeze. On the way, we will also pass Royal Spring,
Troy Springs and Ruth Springs, before we end our journey at Ivey Memorial Park in Branford,
Florida. When you get off the river, you are nearly in downtown Branford.
