Indian Boundary bound to please

I like to plan a fit fun b day trip every June so Indian Boundary was the pick.  And despite me not being a big "camper" it was the best camping spot I've seen.  And just 10 miles Back down cherohayla parkway is turn to bald river falls.   So besides hiking and paddle boarding around the calm pretty Indian boundary lake. I joined bike buds and a crew from West  Bike shop for a 37 mile great ride. 
  We rented boards from River Sports and hauled 3 bikes and two kids so u can imagine our loaded down Freestyle 
  But worth all the effort
