 Trip 1 - Camp
Dantzler to Brooklyn:
A total of 13 miles can be canoed in
approximately 5 1/2 hours. The current is faster and more maneuvering is
required on this section. Put in at Camp Dantzler Bridge and take out where we
are located at the Brooklyn Bridge. A great float for one day.
Trip 2 - Big Creek to
Brooklyn:
A total of 5 miles can be floated in approximately 3
hours. Put in at Big Creek Boat Landing and take out at Brooklyn Bridge. This
is a perfect float for beginners. The current is nice and swim holes are
plentiful.
 Trip 3 - Brooklyn to
Moody's Landing:
A total of 5 miles can be canoed in
approximately 3 1/2 hours. On this float you begin at the Brooklyn Bridge and
float to a small primitive camp ground. Take out at the sandbar-river-left-
just past Moody's Landing sign.
 Mini Trip:
Can be canoed in 30
minutes - but don't! Take plenty of time to swim or hang out on one of the four
big sandbars. A good late afternoon trip or anytime with kids. Start at
Brooklyn Bridge - take out one mile downstream at the next bridge.
Trip 4 - Brooklyn to Janice:
A total of 15 miles can be canoed in approximately 8 1/2 hours and is a good
overnight trip. The section from Moody's Landing to Janice features wide

hours. We suggest you plan 3 days and 2 nights for this trip. Begin at the
Brooklyn Bridge- the stretch from Moody's Landing to Fairley Bridge has been
designated a Wild & Scenic Stream because of it's scenic qualities and
remoteness. Take out river-right at the concrete ramp 3/4 mile past Fairley
Bridge.
