Rocky Ford landing to 301 Bridge
This is a good half-day and a little more trip, best run when the River is flowing well. The river takes many turns before getting to Lakeview road where there is a private landing, this is a little more than halfway. After reaching Lakeview, it is a pretty straight channel from there to 301. Once getting to 301, take a right between the two bridges and make way to the take out point.
River Mileage – 13.2 Miles
Shuttle Mileage – 17 Miles
301 to Williams Landing
This Trip can start out a little tricky and one can find themselves in the middle of someone’s hunting property if they are not careful to find the main run of the River. From the Boat ramp, it is necessary to go between the two bridges to find the main run of the river. Once there, it is a fairly navigable trip to Williams Landing with many twists and turns.
River Mileage – 6.2
Shuttle Mileage – 7
Williams Landing to 24 (Oliver Bridge)

Steel Bridge to Hwy 80 (Blitchton)
Great half day trip. Be very careful, following the run of the river can be a little tricky. It would be very easy to end up in a lake with a tough return to the main run. Parking does carry a small fee, There is an honor box on the Bryan County side of the river.
