Rock Crawler River Run, Boating Event

halcat · Apr 17, 2018

This looks pretty interesting......if I just had a boat.....is it pretty much the same group that went last year? We've tried this in June before and the river can get pretty high with all the spring rain. With the way this winter has been going....it will still be snowing in June.......we will see.

I've done this before from Guntersville to Chattanooga and this section of the river has the best scenery of the entire trip flashemifyougotem

and had a blast. Going to have to try and make this one. :dblthumb:

If you're staying at Springhill Suites downtown you won't be going through the Chickamauga Lock. That is a bit further up river.

Have fun, the Tennessee river gorge is some of the best scenery around and downtown Chattanooga is a blast. If you guys need any recommendations on where to go let me know. Do yourselves a favor and don't hit up any chains, there are way too many good local joints.

edit: Erwin Marine has their main location up river of the Chickamauga Lock but you will want to contact their downtown location for the docks at Springhill Suites. This will put you right on top of all the good night life.

If we end up doing this, you need to drag the old ball and chain with you and let's meet up at Big River B&G. :eat:

For sure. I told Steve I get back from Vegas Friday night late but I should be able to meet up downtown Saturday for the party.

My favorite places within walking distance of the river would be the Local 191, Big River, and Blue Plate. A short Uber ride to the Southside or Northshore opens up a lot more options too.

yes the locks are past downtown. After we get downtown everyone can decide if they want to keep going to the locks.If you have never did it its very cool if you have you might want to skip it.

Very interested in doing this, Gotta work out the logistics and see what I can make happen.

rockwell 1 · Jun 11, 2018

its getting close ,any rock crawlers coming?

ridered3 · Jun 11, 2018

No boat for me, but thought about coming down to hang out and put faces with screen names. That's if y'all allow us land dwellers to hang with the water folks.

Roughly what time would y'all be in Chattanooga
