2006-01-16, this Monday, Grants Creek
Dear Comissioners:
We are trying to make our streams free running and usable. This also helps in mosquitoe control. Here are our plans for this Monday. Elmer Eddy
"Elmer,does anyone get any video on these trips? John" This is from Big John of Talk Station Public Service.
If anyone can do this please join us so we can provide Big John with a video account.
This is the creek forming part of the south boundary of The Quartenary Tract recently acquired by N. C. Coastal Federation. The White Oak River is the eastern boundary and Starkys Creek forms a large part of the northern boundary.
We will meet at 9:00 at the bridge where Grants Creek crosses the Belgrade-Swansboro Road.
This is just south of Palo Alto and about 7.2 miles north of Route 24 and 4.8 miles south of Route 17.
This will be a work and play trip. We need chain saws and cutters or clippers and hand saws. We have worked here before and there is a very short distance to be cleared of obstructions.
If successful here we will move up to Starkys creek and do the same. Even less work here.
This will create a clear canoe trail down Starkys to the White Oak and down the White Oak to Grants Creek and up Grants Creek to the Belgrade-Swansboro. It also give us two pubic access points to the White Oak River which are badly needed!
We plan to be off the water by three. Click on this to see Ed Gruca's pics and story on our last paddle on Mill Creek and Alligator Bay. 060110alligatorbaymillcreek Elmer
