The Chattooga is one of the longest, free-flowing rivers in the Southeastern United States. For white-water rafters, it’s considered an American classic — the sce- nic corridor featured in the movie “Deliverance.” River levels vary with seasonal conditions, but at its best, adven- ture-seekers will find nearly 60 miles of cascading falls, rugged boulders, gentle shoals and adren- aline-pumping rapids flowing past pristine wilderness. The last seven miles of the Chattooga are consid- ered the most exciting, with Class III and IV rapids. Downstream, the river final- ly joins Lake Tugaloo; the most popular take-out spot is about 15 minutes from Westminster, S.C. Recent drought conditions have affected water levels. Avid raf- ters should check river conditions in advance with the U.S. Forest Service (864) 638-9568 or visit www.chattooga-river.net. Hikers will want to explore the Chattooga River Trail, a nearly 40-mile route through North Carolina, Georgia and South Carolina that follows the Chattooga from Burrells Ford Campground (no RV access), in South Carolina, to U.S. Highway 76.

  • Toxaway Suspension Bridge Renovation
    Fall 2019 Newsletter for the Foothills Trail Conservancy - - www.foothillstrail.org Toxaway Suspension Bridge Renovation As part of Duke Power’s (now Duke Energy) construction of the middle portion of the Foothills Trail, there were many bridges built to cross the myriad rivers and creeks of the Jocassee Gorges. These bridges came in all shapes and sizes, but the granddaddy of them all was the suspension bridge over the Toxaway River. Designed by the engineering section of Duke Energy, the 225-ft bridge was built in the early 80’s. Two Duke engineers, Nick Seagle and Ed Luttrell were the primary engineers for the design and construction of all the bridges, including the Toxaway bridge. Construction on the bridge by Duke commenced in 1982 and took several months to com- plete. The heavy equipment necessary to carry out the project was brought down an old roadway from the Wilds camp north of the bridge site, including multiple loads of concrete in standard concrete trucks! All the Duke Energy bridges have been inspected on a regular basis, and a recent inspection revealed that some deterioration had begun to take place in parts of the wood supporting pillars of the bridge that would cause them to be replaced. They decided this was a good time to refurbish the entire bridge! After studying all angles of this enormous task, they also decid- ed that the best material for the long- est life of the bridge was fiberglass. This would be much lighter to transport to the site, but also would be very long-lasting.
