Oklahoma whitewater - Spring Creek, Ozarks, Cherokee County

Cherokee county, Low Water Bridge by Peggs section whitewater kayaking, rafting, and paddling information.

 

CLASS II     0 miles
  The put-in location is a short drive from Tahlequah, there's a road map further down the page with more info on that. The Low Water Bridge by Peggs stretch of Spring Creek is 0 miles long and is rated by American Whitewater as a class II section. There are campgrounds quite near the river where you can camp. Getting your paddling muscles activated and a chance to spend some time outdoors are sure to keep you coming back for more. The nearby hotels are a bit away from the river, but if you don’t have reservations you might end up sleeping in your car. No
    matter if you're whitewater rafting or kayaking this area has a pretty small number of paddling spots. Whitewater rafting and kayaking spots in this state tend to be more forgiving than the national average, so keep in mind that quite a few of the sections here are pretty easy.
The nature scenery of Oklahoma and the cool fresh water make the trip here worthwhile. The beautiful Ozarks scenery is an added bonus. This is an extremely short stretch so better bring some good walking shoes. This is the only paddling stretch along Spring Creek.

Briefly about the general area:
At Spring Creek throughout the summer highs are in the 90's, and through summer nights temperatures are in the 70's. All through the wintertime this place gets highs in the 40's; night lows all through the wintertime for Spring Creek tend to be in the
 
20's. These mountains rock, just explore all the fun things to do in the Ozarks.
The beauty of mother nature reveals herself at Cave Spring, and Dry Hollow is another magnificent place to have a look at close by. Spring Creek is a reasonably wet place regularly with a good deal of rain; during June this area sees the most rain, and January on the other hand is the driest.
