Gomer, on Boater
Talk, suggests that this one be checked out. It's smaller than
Citico. "Break out the Micro 230 or Topo
for this one!"
The last mile to the citico confluence drops 280 feet.
Driving up the road for Doublecamp is worth it, but you only need to run the last half mile for
some seriously fun drops.
Multiple 3 and 4 foot drops that are only about 8 feet wide give this stream a unique and
beautiful character.
Just beware, Doublecamp is usually full of trees (2 trees made one of the rapids just before the
confuluence unrunnable as of Feb 23rd, 2003 so please use caution and scout!)
If you have any other questions or comments, please email me.

need to be scouted for on the drive up. I have ran this at 3.5' ish on the Tellico Gauge and it was
more than enough water. Not sure how the rain fell the night before, could've been heavier over
there. Don't miss a chance to run this if you got what it takes! Edit
rain . The creek is well defined and for the most part the rapids are good to go, Just watch out
for newly fallin wood , The one rapid with the wood in the drop was still go to go ; this one is a
real gem so if you can catch it do it if your skills are there...From H.K.B. Edit
to go....put in at the first well defined camp site and paddle down to Citico creek...watching for
newly fallen trees...Jwall Edit
