Austin, Texas - Barton Creek in the Summer

In this video, I show you the so-called free side of Barton Springs. This area is located just downstream of the famous Barton Springs Pool and extends all the way to where Barton Creek meets Lady Bird Lake.

came here everyday in summer when i was a kid in Austin 1965. Watch out for the under tow on the spillway coming off Barton Springs. It's pretty deep there (especially if you are 9) Learned the hardway (hint go to the bottom and leap out of the current) :). There was a rope swing behind the baseball fields. The baseball fields are are still there. I played ball in those fields. Splintered my shin on that field! Barton Springs is just as it was in 1968 I can attest. I go there once a year for my annual baptismal. The other end of Barton Springs is fun too, You can walk up Barton Creek and it is all rock bottom creek like Barton Springs but wilder. Clear and sometimes deep, and you might even see a dinosaur footprint too. Great place to grow up! Don't get me started with the Aqua Festival!
