Amicalola Creek

Saturday, June 24, will be Day 1 of Paddle Georgia 2006, being run this year on the Etowah River. That means about 300 boats, most of them operated by paddlers wil minimal experience, will be on the Etowah downriver of Highway 9, including the 2 miles or so from the confluence of Amicalola Creek and the Etowah to the take-out at Kelly Bridge Road. Paddlers should either use the alternate take-out described above or be prepared for the crowd.
