Dukes Creek

Dukes Creek is one of the steepest creeks I have ever paddled including the Ravens. Anyway with that said, This creek is sick, fun, clean and super big. David Cohen and I logged three descents today and dropped a total of 750 feet of pure NOR GA goodness. Here are some pictures taken of us by are good friend Matt Hollingsworth.

Below here the Mullet Madness begins....... And Just for the Love.....Followed by Rock Bottom, Which was recently run by David at a little higher flow.  I would say this is a good medium low level. Dukes has a very good window of runnable flows and is usually runnable after everything else has dropped out. Shows what the lack of construction and preservation can do for you, thankfully Dukes is in an undisturbed watershed.
