    Byram Swinging Bridge by Johnny McGowan

    Current river stage at Jackson was 16.1. Due to recent heavy rain and flooding, the river was up over 10ft, very swift, and more than double the usual volume of water flowing past this test site. The water had a brown, muddy appearance, and noticeably different from its usual clearer nature. No wildlife observed, but several people stopped to have lunch on the bridge, and two canoeists were observed.
