- trskyExplorerBlue Heron Campground KY. On the border of KY and TN. Big South Fork NRRA. South fork of the Cumberland river. My wife and I do it often. Start at the boat ramp Walk up the trail and go in at Devils Jump and end up back at the ramp or go further on down and walk back. There are also outfitters in the area that can take you up further if you want.
- Pine_BarrenExplorerNo disrespect taken. On the subject matter it is a nice place to go and enjoy

I know a lot of the people in the tribe and they caall themselves Creek Indian. Your correct on that is the same tribe but all the ones I know call themselves Creek Indians from the Poarch band
The guy who runs the Reserve told me “Creek” is the “white man’s” name for the tribe but “Muskogee” is their name. I usually use the latter out of deference to them. I suppose there’s lots of variation within the tribe themselves. Perhaps it’s a generational thing.
Doesn’t really matter. I didn’t intend any disrespect to you. - Pine_BarrenExplorerI know a lot of the people in the tribe and they caall themselves Creek Indian. Your correct on that is the same tribe but all the ones I know call themselves Creek Indians from the Poarch band

whoops....wrong state ...my bad:o - ken56ExplorerHartford TN at exit 447 on I-40. This is more rafting and some rapids rather than a leisurely tubing trip but I have seen people tubing there. There are outfitters that supply a ride and equipment if needed. Couple good campgrounds there too.
