Summary

Description
English: Bottomland hardwood swamp at the confluence of Tubby Creek and the Wolf River in the Holly Springs National Forest near Ashland, Mississippi.
  • The red ribbons [visible in the center of the image] were used for navigation purposes by members of the Wolf River Conservancy in completing the first-ever full descent of the Wolf River in 1998. At the time, this location was considered to be the river's head of navigation, but the canoers had to first discover a way to navigate from the put-in to the actual river channel, located approximately 200 meters to the south. The resulting "path" was marked with the engineer's tape.
  • From this point, the Wolf River flows alternately west and north into West Tennessee, joining the Mississippi River in downtown Memphis.
