DIFFICULTIES: A brief description of specific points that might present problems for the paddler are listed, hopefully in enough detail to make them recognizable without taking away the thrill of running a new river.

DIRECTIONS: Detailed directions have been given to find the put-in and the takeout. Where there are several sections of a particular stream included, only the put-in on the first section and the takeout on the last section are described. It is assumed that anyone who intends to paddle a good bit of a river will obtain county road maps. These maps are available from the local county office of the State Highway Engineer or from:

North Carolina Department of Transportation

Division of Highways

1500 Mail Service Center

Raleigh, NC 27611

(919) 733-2520

Visit www.doh.dot.state.nc.us/operations/secondaryroads/maps.html to obtain an order form online. There is a charge for county maps.

Where a river flows through several counties, county roads will be referenced by name and number (Burke CR 1100) initially. Thereafter, only a route number will be given until another road in the next county is introduced.
