The acess issue must be lifted and would only apply to specific parts of the river. Part of this run is owned by the NPS, part of the run is owned by the Tow Line Road Community, and finally the last few miles are owned by the Cherokee Indians. The river sees hundreds of commercial and semi-commercail trips from local rent a rafters and tubers all summer.
