In that area, the creek wandered through a narrow valley (at least when compared to the Fall Creek Valley and the nearby White River Valley), with the adjacent bluffs rising 30-40 feet above the valley floor. You would take 113th east off of Olio Road to get there.A portion of Cicero Creek northwest of Noblesville had promise. Geist Park is located off of Florida Road with closest cross street being 113th. Nice restrooms, children's playground Fees: We did not get to go on a vacation this year so seeing the bald eagle made me feel like I was out west where I would normally see them. We were in Sea Eagle 330s and our most novice. I was so stoked and can't wait for the heat to subside so we can go see Sam (yes, I named the eagle) again. We just were silent and treaded water for 3-4 minutes until he flew away. The second time we saw him, where he was not flying away from us, he was on a low branch and looking for fish. We saw green herons, a kingfisher, and (praise God) a bald eagle. After a mile, there are just woods and no homes. The water started to get clearer (yay) and one could see the bottom. The creek was really down and we were a few days away from the City's first 100 degree day in 20+ years. There were a few times we had to get out and walk our kayaks over very low trees or where the creek was shallow. There are small cottage like homes along the river and you are going against the current and it is not too bad and worth the effort. Getting back to Geist Park and which way to go, if you put in and go east you head down Fall Creek. Depending what day it is and who is working, they will charge you $8 to put in/out. I just don't like all the gas and that area where they want you to put out. I recommend putting out back at Geist Park when done versus going under the Olio causeway. There were also many beautiful water lilys and lots of lilly pads on the north side of the lake.
I was surprised at how big the younger totally gray swans are. We were fortunate to just build up enough speed to hit a channel current to follow a family of swans. They are very skiddish and fly off with that low, trademark croaking as they leave their roost in a huff. There are so many that they are frankly common, but still so cool to watch. We saw several blue heron spear fish out of the water. If you put in and go right (west) you can go toward the east end of Geist Lake which has channels, lots of algae, shallow, muddy and the further you go towards the Olio road causeway, many mansions including Reggie Miller's.Īdmidst all of this are Great White Egrets, beautiful swans probably a dozen in this area. You would take 113th east off of Olio Road to get there. We put in at Geist Park, which has the facilities featured in the other report such as nice restrooms, children's playground. This report complement's the one currently posted but adds some detail.
