Apalachee River
From Snows Mill (hello millhouses) to the dam at high shoals: fairly shallow, not very fast, but very nice.......

Apalachee River
Larry, The portion shown on the map is US441 AND US 129, they are the same from Athens to Eatonton, where 441 continues toward Dublin, and 129 bears right toward Macon, so the map is technically correct....The map is totally wrong. Macon highway is US441, NOT 129 as indicated....

Chattahoochee River National Recreation Area

Please repair the annual pass box at the trail head....
