Shuttle directions.




To get to the run, from I-20 take Hwy 81 south from

Covington and the run starts in downtown Porterdale.

When you see the mill, you are at the put in. There is

an abandoned gas station on the north side of the

bridge that has been used for parking. To get to the

take out, go north on Hwy 81 close to the edge of

town and turn right on River Front Road. Follow the

road till you get to the river on the right. There is a

parking area with a trash can.

The best put in is to put into the river on the

northwest corner of the bridge on public property.

Then float a few yards down to take out just before

you reach the 12 foot high dam. Portage on river

right and put back in just below the dam.




The run is about 1/4 mile of III+ ledges then about a

mile or two of II-III. AT HIGHER WATER THIS RUN

INCREASES DRASTICALLY IN DIFFICULTY.
