Trip Report

ReporterSteve Flanagan

Joe Whitener & I ran this creek once or twice a week from June - August 2005 at various water levels and did every section (except Mammoth Falls). Luke Swenson joined us on 3 AUG 05 as we ran all the falls. I have posted pictures & videos of every section we did (except the Gauntlet) with by best descriptions of the falls. I have also posted a diagram that I hope is of some use to future paddlers. Although we did get to run the falls at flood stage after a big week of storms in early June, I still don't think there was enough water to do Mammoth Falls (but we honestly didn't even think to scout it at the time). Every other time we went, there wasn't even a trickle over there. GA 219 Bridge is obviously the best put in location. We found a workable take out location at the end of Terry Lane - just past a house you can paddle through a swampy area and hike up a small hill to get to the road. Be careful not to anger the land owner(s).
