More OCOEE White water rafting pictures : May 2006

OCOEE river flows along the border of the states of GA, TN and SC. The river receives periodic water supply from the dam located @ the west end of the river. As a result, the water level of the OCOEE is quite generous. The water release from the dam adds to the force which makes it a perfect location for white water rafting. During the 1996 Olympics in Atlanta, the rafting events were held at the upper OCOEE section.
