Past the first set of riffles, we head toward the curve at the foot
of Roundtop Hill. Roundtop rises almost 1000 feet above the river. Halfway up its eastern
flank we spot a maple tree that has gone bright red before any of the others on the hill.
We decide that we will continue on until we either get around the curve, draw even with
the tree or the sun touches Roundtop. In the meantime, we see the next set of riffles ahead
and the current is getting stonger.
