About This Access Site
Mile O' Smiles is a whitewater take-out access point on Fugitt Creek in Harlan County, Kentucky. As a take-out location, this site is designed for paddlers finishing a whitewater run rather than launching. Fugitt Creek is known for its whitewater paddling opportunities, making this an important access point for kayakers and canoeists running sections of the creek. The take-out allows boaters to exit the water after completing their paddling adventure on the creek.
