North Chickamauga Creek

More N. Chick History:

Bob Slayden, David Broemel, Greer Edwards (Broemel), Ken Strictland, Charlie Sturdivant ran from Rock House on Jan. 19, 1980. Minimum water level. Ran Falls, but rocky. Greer washed over the falls, but OK. Water level about minimum. My notes say that N. Chick. was first run in Nov. 1979 by Mike Stoker and Lewis Brawley. Second run was in December by Roger Scott, Ken Strictland, and Tom Parsons. All runs were from Rock House.

We started putting in off a surface mine road that required extensive 4-wheelin to get access. This point is about 1 mile downstream from the Greyfrier Road access. My recollection is not getting out of the boat for the entire run once we leared the routes. Ran it 4-5 times in early 80's. Great Creek. Still my very favorite. --Bob Slayden
