That whole meander reminds me of a spot at Delaware Water Gap, alongside and downhill from Rt80, between NJ and PA, where I have parked and walked directly into the water or, at other times, pumped-up an army-surplus rubber-raft and gotten aboard it, letting it take me at the will of the current , downstream, for quite a ways, before alighting by paddling toward the river's edge and simply wading to shore, deflating the raft, and then walking back to my parked car along the river's edge, and sometimes back into the water.
Everything is shades of emerald green, especially the water.
You may have inspired me to go there again this Summer.
