Marble Creek [ back ] |
|
| Location: | Madison County |
| Difficulty: | Class III |
| Put-in/Take-out: |
To get to the put-in from Ironton go south on 21 after a few miles turn left on E hwy. Go 13 miles and Marble Creek State Park will be on your left. If
you go in late spring or early summer you'll have to pay to park, I'm not sure if the Silver Mine parking permits will work here or not but I doubt
it.
Take-out infomration has been removed due to prior land-owner conflicts. |
| Description: | The put-in is in the pool above the dam, or just below it if you choose not to run the dam. After the dam, there's little whitewater until you reach the bridge. This is where the heart of the run lies. A multitude of surfing waves and eddies abound - have fun. There's a lot of flat water after the bridge, but don't despair before you reach the take-out you will come to a beautiful class III rapid. The creek constricts, the elvation drops, and the rocky hillsides are amazing. |
