This section is long - the next take out after Fountain Inn Road is 11.5 miles downstream. There are shoals at the front end of the trip, flatwater in the center with intermittent shoals/ripples and a high potential for woody debris / fallen trees.
This access is a put-in or take-out only. No roadside parking is available. Please unload boats and put-in downstream of the bridge, river-right. Please do not leave cars along the road's shoulder.
Roadside parking is available on both sides of the road north of the river (river-left). Follow the dirt trail below the bridge to the sandy beach. This access is unofficial but widely used. Use at your own risk.
Kilgore Bridge Road is a 20-minute drive from Fountain Inn Road, so shuttling cars could take around 45 minutes. Immediately after putting in, there are large shoals that can be Class III in high water. There is another set of large shoals beginning 2,000 feet downstream of Fountain Inn Road. Kilgore Bridge Road is the 4th bridge after putting in the river. Take out downstream of the bridge, river-right. Limited roadside parking is available on the downstream right side of Kilgore Bridge Road.
