Alt Text Map of Obed Wild and Scenic River in Tennessee. The sideways Y-shaped park travels along rivers shown in blue. Surrounding terrain is shown as beige or shades of tan for wildlife areas. Extended Description The park is oriented east-west like a long, thin letter Y laid on its side with the opening to the left. The northern arm follows Clear Creek. It starts just south of Jones Knob, which is at an elevation of 1,792 feet (546 meters). Traveling from west to east this leg passes Norris Ford, Double Drop Falls, Barnett Bridge (Waltman Ford), which has a canoe launch, Jett Bridge with a picnic area and canoe launch, and The Grunch Rapids. Close to where Clear Creek joins the Obed River at Clear Creek Junction are Lilly Rapids; Lilly Bridge, which has a canoe launch; Lilly Bluff Overlook, which has a picnic area and stargazing; and Jacks Rock Falls, Camel Rock Rapids, and Wootens Folly Rapids. The southern arm of the park follows the Obed River, which runs through Catoosa Wildlife Management Area. State Route 298, also labeled Genesis Road, travels north over the Obed River on Adams Bridge and passes the Genesis Game Checking Station. The park begins at one edge of the much larger wildlife management area and travels past Billy Goat Bluff Rapids and Potter Ford, which has a canoe launch. About two-thirds of the way across this leg of the park, Daddys Creek joins the Obed River at Obed Junction. The park extends south to encompass Cumberland Trail State Park, which has a note saying that the trail is subject to Catoosa Wildlife Management Area closures and to see above. At the south end of Daddy’s Creek is Devils Breakfast Table, which has a canoe launch. The Cumberland Trail runs from Devils Breakfast Table to Obed Junction and along the remaining length of the park to the east. Between Obed Junction and Clear Creek Junction are 90 Right and 90 Left Rapids, Ohmigod Rapids, Rock Garden Rapids, and the 1.9-mile Point Trail, which ends at The Point. The leg past where Clear Creek and the Obed River join is about a third the length of either arm. Sites along this final leg include Canoe Hole Rapids, Widow Maker Rapids, Alley Ford, Rock Creek with a primitive campground, and Nemo with a picnic area, canoe launch, and stargazing. Nemo Rapids is just east of the park boundary, and the Obed River feeds the Emory River shortly after that. The National Park Service Visitor Center, which has a ranger station, is in the town of Wartburg, to the east of the park and near the right edge of the map. In Wartburg, Main Street, Maiden Street, and Kingston Street are labeled as are US Route 27 and State Route 62. The Cumberland Plateau stretches south of the scenic river area, and Fairfield Glade is shaded in tan and tucked along the southern border of Catoosa Wildlife Management Area. Legend A scale in the top right corner of the map measures distances of 1 and 2 kilometers and 1 and 2 miles. Text nearby reads, “Many land tracts within the park remain private property. Federally owned tracts have been posted. Access to or use of private lands without permission of the property owner is prohibited. Please respect the owners’ rights.” The legend reads as follows: Green line separating white from green area for Authorized park area and boundary, White line cased in black for Unpaved road, Black dashed line for Trail, Red dotted line for Cumberland Trail, and Blue triangle in a blue line for Rapids. A column of symbols represents Canoe launch, Ranger station, Picnic area, Stargazing, and Primitive campground.
