Trip Report

ReporterChris Womack

Made it alright 9/3/20 with a sit on top. Water ~8 feet @ Scottsville. You can head North at the middle fork bridge just past Bayou Bluff campground and the reasonably maintained dirt road closely parallels the Bayou. Lots of launch points and its easy to monitor the water and rapids. I only went about 1/4 mile. Was dragging every rapid on the middle fork. Wouldn't launch on middle fork less than 8'.
