There are 2 put-in options for L Brush:
The standard is right on the hwy, where it starts to bend to the right near the top. there's a pull off on the left. nice bush-whack straight down to the creek.
Above that, go to the top of the mtn (look 4 a church on the right, forgot the name) take a left right after it. there's a cable across the road about half way down. it's a 10 min hike down to the creek.
this is the USGS Sequatchie R. gauge near dunlop, TN. The river flows in below it, i think, but there is a local precipitation gauge on the site. http://waterdata.usgs.gov/tn/nwis/uv?03570835

L. Brush Creek
This should be changed to a IV-V run, as it is it's
definately the hardest, most dangerous class III-IV
run I know of. Read Clay's description on AW. I run it
5 times @ all different levels, and every levels
represents it own set of changes. There's a long
rapid, we named Krispy Kreme that that has about four
holes, with undercuts that have to be punched to get
to the main drop. Which is about 50 yds long, with a
sieve on the left. Everyone I have boated with over
there all liked the run, and will attest that it's got
some action. I have some video, if you'd like to put
it on AW, I'll get you a copy.
