River Description
Runnable nearly all year, this section is swift with few obstuctions. The rapid occurs about .5
miles below the abandoned bridge halfway into the run. At low water there are two distinct sets of
Class II drops. As the water level rises, the two drops merge into one ledge/wavetrain. Downstream,
just above the confluence with the Alapaha, look for Turket Creek entering on the right.At low
levels this is a 12' waterfall into a beautiful grotto...At high levels (heavy local rains) this
drop turns into a pretty radical Class III-IV creeky double drop.
