Trip Report

Reportermichael martin

We went down in Mid June, the water was cold, but not unbareable. Hiwassee Outfitters really took care of us. The stretch we ran was a little over 6 miles. It had some nice, solid class II rapids and several great surfing spots. Expect to paddle some flat water between the rapids. The Hiwassee is pretty wide, we found the best rapids center or river left. We found a few holes, nothing that wouldn't spit you out and if you like to play in holes, you will have fun with them.
