I heard consistent rolling hills. That's pretty consistent with what I know of the area.

Yeah, green sludge.....the Ohio River....yuck! I wouldn't swim in it unless I HAD to. But I come out of any open water swim around here with a green brownish sludge. Yeah, don't wear anything white if you want it stay white.

I asked this one lady (this was her third) how she liked the swim and she said that she loved it. Now that could have been simply because 2 miles of it was downstream with strong downstream currents.
