Chattahoochee

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.

Smith Island is the largest drop on the Upper Hooch. It is an easy rapid and follows the 'Dead Sea'.

When the river isn't littered with tubers, you can have a wave to yourself for a few minutes.
