Watauga River Access at Guy Ford Road
Edgar Peck has been working to secure access to the take-out for Watauga Section 3 / put-in for Watauga Gorge for several years. The parking area to access the Watauga River at Guy Ford Road is privately-owned. The Blue Ridge conservancy has been working to purchase the 2.3 acre property on the downstream river left side of Guy Ford for about 2 years. This is about to come to fruition, securing a permanent public access to the river. This site provides a put-in to the Watauga Gorge section of the river below Guy Ford Road, as well as a take-out point for Section 3.
