Lots of wood in a fun and beautiful creek – Spring Creek – Route 1171 to NC Route 209 in Hot Springs

Epic adventure going over, under and around logs. Creek was great, but there was a lot more wood than last time I went a few years ago. Too many to specify rapids. If it's a blind rapid, assume there is wood. The gorge is really beautiful with a wilderness feel you don't get many other places around here

Big Laurel was 1'5' on the way up. Level was as low as I would go, and couple more inches would have been ideal.
