At low flows the whole river narrows into this 8' wide slot.
A hazard, with ropes, to be avoided by going around not underneath.

This spot is going to change without this dam, this drop may not even get that much water. This is currently the highest drop on the 12 Mile, not for long with any luck.
Two dams on Twelvemile Creek were removed. One remains upstream and may be removed in the future.
Park and Play, only a few miles from Clemson. Needs soo much rain, only go here if your in the area. It's not Rock Island, and it isn't predictble,yet. Hole washes with just a little more water, and is too shallow with just a little less. VERY small window to catch. Water quaility is VERY poor. Bring your nose plugs!
Throwin down some ends at Lay Bridge. Tricky to get the 'prime' level, but worth it if you do!
Wade harrison throwin it down!
