About This Access Site
Pobiddy Road Take Out is a whitewater take-out access point on Potato Creek in Upson County, Georgia. This site serves as an exit point for paddlers completing runs on Potato Creek, a medium-sized stream with significant gradient and flow characteristics typical of Georgia's Piedmont region. The creek features an average gradient of 20.9 feet per mile with moderate flows averaging around 12 cubic feet per second, making it suitable for whitewater paddling during normal water conditions.

Potato Creek is a substantial stream system spanning 48.72 miles with a drainage area of 108 square miles. The water drops approximately 1,017 feet over its course, creating dynamic flowing water conditions. At this take-out location, paddlers can expect moderate current and typical whitewater characteristics associated with a Stream Order 5 waterway. The site's designation as a take-out point indicates it provides convenient access for paddlers to exit the water after completing upstream sections of the creek.
