I am planning a trip to Weogufka Creek in a couple of weeks. Any info. regarding trees down or other obstructions would be helpful. We will do County Rd. 15 to Low Water Bridge only. Says David Moore

Put in at coosa county management 119 and get out at the bridge is a good short trip with lots of sights... Says James Darby

The Low Water Bridge to Ford stretch of Weogufka Creek in Alabama is 9.6 miles long and is rated by American Whitewater as a class I-II section. If you're coming from Talladega-Sylacauga it's not a long drive at all
    to the put-in location, please print out a copy of the road map further down the page so you won’t get lost. This is a pretty decent length section, it's good length for a morning trip. Since you're on this site you are probably into whitewater rafting or kayaking, either way there
are not so many other good rivers for that around here. The campgrounds here at Weogufka Creek are pretty good. Weogufka Creek doesn't have a lot of paddling stretches, the Low Water Bridge to Ford stretch is the only one. The average Alabama whitewater rafting or kayaking river tends to be harder to run than those in other states, so if you're not from around here don't forget that the rivers in this state are less manageable. The nature scenery of Alabama and the cool fresh water attract people from near and far. You might have to settle for a hotel  
a bit away from the river if you want to stay the night, but you'd better reserve in advance because these hotels fill up quick.

Briefly about the general area:
Weogufka Creek ordinarily gets lots of rainfall; March is the month that gets the most rain, and the driest month is October. Throughout the warm days of summer highs here at Weogufka Creek reach the 90's. Once the sun is down it falls down to the 60's.
