Product Description

Combining and expanding the information from A Paddler's Guide to Southern Georgia and A Paddler's Guide to Northern Georgia, A Canoeing & Kayaking Guide to Georgia is the definitive guide to whitewater in the Peach State. This book continues to bring paddlers the best of Georgia's streams: from classics rivers, such as the Chattahoochee and Flint, to steep creeks like Overflow and Talking Rock.

The authority on paddling the waterways of Georgia, A Canoeing & Kayaking Guide to Georgia combines A Paddler's Guide to Southern Georgia and A Paddler's Guide to Northern Georgia into one easy-to-read text. From the Blue Ridge Mountains of northern Georgia to the Atlantic Coast of southeastern Georgia, this redesigned and completely updated guide covers the creeks, rivers, and coastal waterways of the state, detailing thousands of miles of paddling, which ranges in difficulty from scenic floats down the St. Marys River to the world-class whitewater of the Chattooga.

Inside you will find:
New maps
New river profiles
New at-a-glance data box on river description, shuttle, and gauge
Updated contact information

Almost as essential as your paddle and life jacket, this guide is indispensable when planning your next trip.

2.0 out of 5 stars Disappointing, Mar 9 2007

By Jim DePree - Published on Amazon.com

This review is from: A Canoeing & Kayaking Guide to Georgia (Paperback)

I found this book a relatively little use in a recent trip to the Altamaha basin. During my limited scouting, I found at least five errors on the maps which resulted in extra miles driven. Moreover, the narrative fails to mention the pervasive impact of the pulp plant stench on enjoyment of the lower river. I wonder if the information available has really been updated from the earlier guidebooks. While there is some useful information in this book, I strongly recommend using online sources and local maps to augment trip planning.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great Resource, Jun 28 2006

By Eric - Published on Amazon.com

This review is from: A Canoeing & Kayaking Guide to Georgia (Paperback)

This books provides great detail about floatable sections of the rivers and creeks around the state. They are broken down by region and section of the river. There is also supporting information for some of the rivers like discussion with the paddlers involved in the making of the river scenes of the movie Deliverance on the Chattooga river. In my opinion, this is an excellent resource for the canoer/kayaker/fisher.

This review is from: A Canoeing & Kayaking Guide to Georgia (Paperback)

I purchased this book to use as part of my pre-planning for paddle trips on rivers and creeks in Georgia my son and I have not visited. It is very informative and something I consider a must before venturing down an unknown stretch of water without a the knowledge or experience of a local.
