Trip Report

ReporterDaniel Molnar

From US 60 to KY 1638, Otter Creek runs through the Fort Knox Military Reservation. In January 2004, I wrote to the commanding officer at Fort Knox and asked permission to kayak that section of Otter Creek. On February 24, 2004, I received a letter advising me that my request was denied. The letter cited two concerns: (1) disruption to adjacent military training, and (2) safety issues due to three low-water crossings and two dams.
