Update 2023-08-18:
Re-reschedule Retry Sugar Creek to Troupville Chainsaw Cleanup, Withlacoochee River 2023-09-02.
Hoping for higher and cleaner river water, this time we are
aiming at 9 AM, Saturday, August 19, 2023, to chainsaw one big
deadfall between I-75 and GA 133 on the Withlacoochee River, and
maybe a few more between GA 133 and the Little River
Confluence.
For our original date, the river level was two feet below our
recommended level of 116′ NAVD88, and Valdosta had just reported
very high E. coli in that stretch.
On this new date of August 19th, we may also use a put-in closer
to our main deadfall target. Bring a rope on at least one end of
your boat for lowering it in there. Bring a chainsaw if you really
know how to use it, but you do not have to saw to join us.
Our main target this time is one remaining big deadfall between
I-75 and GA 133.
When:
Gather 9 AM, launch 9:30 AM, end 4 PM, Friday, August 19, 2023
Put
In: Meet at the back of the Salty Snapper parking lot,
1405 Gornto Rd, Valdosta, GA 31602 and we’ll go to the put-in from
there.
