Description
This is an intense creek, with lots of drops and a big slide toward the end. Eddies are few and far between, and there are lots of blind curves. Scouting is advisable, because the creek is narrow and there is always the possibility for strainers. (On 5/31/04, however, no portages were required.)
One possibility for takeout is at Hall's on the River. This requires about a 1/2 mile paddle upstream on the Kentucky River, which may not be possible, since the Kentucky River is often high when Jouett Creek is running. The other possibility for takeout is downstream a few miles at Clay's Ferry, under the I-75 bridge -- the same takeout used for Boone Creek and Calloway Creek.
