Short Creek

Marty Montana (THE LEGEND!) and I ran Short creek for the first time this weekend. Not sure of the level, but from discriptions' of the 18' I would guess that it was over 14', just a guess. we ran the high point in the center and there was no scrapping, just big smiles. we put in about 2mi. above the Big one, class II with one or two Class III. At this level Great class III/IV with a couple of Class IV+ bekow the falls. I would say that it is a lot harder than Daddy's Creek, TN at 1.9, Little River(sinks section) up to around 4.5', citico @.5 over bidge(only level run), but not as hard as Five falls, Talluha@500. It is a run that is worth checking out. Town was @ 600, but as I said before compare to the discription of the falls I'd say that it was over 14'. The area is Beautiful.

WARNING: Better have a shuttle driver, No parking safe parking at put-ins'. Water fall put-in: ranger said that we would Get Towed and Possibly charged with Tesspassing, posted no parking. The lake paddle makes you look forward to the Chattooga Paddle, But the ACTION UP STREAM MAKE'S IT WORTH IT! Once you are pass the 18' water fall the action starts and does not let up till the lake.
