Description

Difficulty: Moderate to Strenuous. It can be challenging during periods of low water when it may be necessary to portage around obstructions.

Crowds: Light.

IMPORTANT: Requires staging 2 vehicles or arranging pickup if doing down creek trip. Another fun trip that most paddlers do is to launch from the Rembert C. Dennis Landing (listed as "Take Out" below) and paddle upstream as far as possible. You'll see a great variety of swamps by doing this.

Put In: Patts Road, Moncks Corner, SC 29461. Park at end of the dirt road and there’s an easy to find path leading to Palmetto Trail on the southeast side of the parking area. The launching ramp/bridge is a 300-yard portage down the trail. GPS for Parking Area: 33.255451, -79.916218 or 33°15’19.6”N, 79°54’58.4”W. GPS for Actual Ramp/Bridge: 33.253937, -79.913003 or 33°15’14.2”N, 79°54’46.8”W

Take Out: Rembert C. Dennis Landing, 1400 SC HWY 402, Moncks Corner, SC 29461. GPS: 33.195955, -79.953198 or 33°11’45.4”N, 79°57’11.5”W

Fees/Permits: None.

Current: Runs downstream, southwest direction.

Tidal Influence: Yes! Approximately 2.75 hours behind the Charleston tide table. Charleston Tide Chart, click HERE.

​Precautions: Obstructions or water levels that require portaging are the biggest concern. After big storms, downed trees and low-hanging branches will have to be negotiated. It’s advisable to wear bright orange during hunting season.
