Hiwassee Dries: Kayaks and Railroad Tracks

An absolutely beautiful early spring-like day paddling the Hiwassee Dries. This section rarely runs and is largely dewatered. Once in a while they are doing maintenance on the dam and the dries run. This time we took the slicey boats with good friends and had a great time enjoying this fun section of river and beautiful scenery. I've not paddled my loki in months due to all the creeking we've been doing plus instead of my slicey boat, I've been using the playobat this winter. So- the Loki made for a super fun day even as I got reoriented in it. :) We put in at Tutrletown Creek and took out at the powerhouse. Level was approximately 1,800 CFS.
