Paddle Georgia 2014 Fall Float on the Flint Oct
Albany Allemande– Paddle Georgia 2014 Fall Float on the Flint Oct. 10—Flint River Distance: 14 miles Starting Elevation: 190 feet Lat: 31.6022°N Lon: 84.1381°W Ending Elevation: 151 feet Lat: 31.4388°N Lon: 84.1423°W Restroom Facilities: Mile 0 Flint River Hydro Dam Mile 4.7 Radium Springs Boat Ramp Mile 14 Mitchell County Landing Points of Interest: Mile 0.2—Muckafoonee Creek—A short distance up this creek on river right is the 1906 dam that created “Lake Worth.” Today, the dam serves as an overflow spillway for the larger dam on the Flint. This oddly named waterway is a combination of two even more oddly named creeks: Kinchafoonee and Muckalee creeks. The Creek Indian word Kinchafoonee is believed to have meant “Mortar Nutshells” while Muckalee, recorded the Indian Agent Benjamin Hawkins, meant “Pour on me.” While this is the site of one of the first hydro-power dams in South Georgia, the Georgia General Assembly had earlier established laws specifically protecting Kinchafoonee Creek from obstructions that would prevent fish passage. The 1876 law prohibited the construction of any “dam, trap, net, seine or other device for catching fish, unless the channel is left for six feet.” There was, of course, a major loophole in the law: “nothing herein contained shall be so construed to prevent the erection of dams for milling and manufacturing purposes,” and thus a dam came to be built on Kinchafoonee. These lyrical names still echo through the region’s culture. The Kinchafoonee Cowboys is a well-known hony-tonk band from the area and Leesburg’s Luke Bryan, included an ode to fishing, boating, four-wheeling and drinking called “Muckalee Creek Water” on his 2011 album Tailgates and Tanlines. -

Cressler, U.S. Geological Survey “Originally called ‘Skywater’ by the Creek Indians who held sacred rites on its banks and later referred to as ‘Blue Springs’ by early Albany residents, ‘Radium Springs’ got its latest name when developer Baron Collier tested the water and found trace elements of radium, thought to be a healing substance at that time.

Department of Natural Resources Wildlife Resources Division Law Enforcement Section Field Operations Weekly Report July 31-August 6, 2011 This report is a broad sampling of events that have taken place in the past week, but does not include all actions taken by the Law Enforcement Section. Region I- Calhoun (Northwest) BARTOW COUNTY On July 6th, Cpl. Lee Burns, RFC Byron Young, and RFC Barton Hendrix were planning lake patrols at the DNR boathouse when two frantic women approached the officers. The women were concerned that their two sons, who had gone riding on jet-skis several hours earlier, were missing and could not be found. The two teenagers had left from Coopers Day Use Area 1. The rangers immediately initiated a search for the teenagers and searched for over an hour. They finally located the two jet-skis and teenagers at Red Top Mountain State Park. One of the jet-skis had mechanical engine problems. The rangers reunited the missing teens with their families. CHEROKEE COUNTY On July 3rd, Sgt. Mike Barr received information that two blue and white Polaris jet-skis had been stolen from the owner’s driveway near Galts Ferry Day Use Area. Sgt. Barr contacted the owner and found that the jet-skis were on a double trailer parked in a driveway at their residence. The trailer lock had been cut. The Cherokee County Sheriff’s Office was contacted and a stolen report completed. Sgt. Barr received more information on Thursday that the trailer of the jet-skis had been found abandoned on Cox Farm Road.
