But this time I tried a few different things, including the "river crossing" that we hadn't done last week. I tried the original spot and once again it looked a bit scary (a little too deep), but thanks to an exploratory hike we did, I was able to find a new spot that looked like a good place for river crossing. After a very exciting and a little scary 20~30 secs (it seemed more...) of maneuvering though water and rocks we reached the other end. (I have to say that it was exciting for me and my 10 year old, not for my wife...)
The idea was to look for a road and keep going, but after doing a bit of exploring, we found that unfortunately there was no way out (without cutting a few trees, that is...)
So what did we do? Another river crossing, so we headed back to the same place we had started. This time I did it with more confidence and maybe a little faster, so after a few bangs and going always on 4L we were on the other side...
Unfortunately I didn't have a chance to take good pictures of the river crossing (it was too cold to get wet), but here's one that shows the Deli, just before completing our first aquatic trip:
