Rivers, streams, and creeks are public land up to the average high water mark. I just dont get some people.

Ran GA255 to GA115 on 6/13/06 - 70 cfs on this gauge, 300 cfs on Cornelia gauge. Solo canoes. Adequate water - only a few scrapes - could probably drop flow by another third and still get down it. Very nice stretch. Had Wildwood Outfitters shuttle us.
