About This Access Site
The Slide is a whitewater take-out access point on Line Creek in Coweta County, Georgia. Line Creek is a substantial stream classified as a large river (Stream Order 6) with a drainage area of 457 square miles. The creek features a notable 288-foot total elevation drop over its 44.93-mile length, creating an average gradient of 6.4 feet per mile. With an average flow of 435.89 cubic feet per second and velocity of 2.01 feet per second, this is an active flowing waterway suitable for paddlers seeking moving water conditions.

As a take-out location, The Slide serves boaters completing upstream paddling sections. The site's name suggests the presence of natural features typical of whitewater terrain. Paddlers should be aware that Line Creek's gradient and flow characteristics indicate moderate to faster current conditions, making this suitable for paddlers with intermediate to advanced skills. The creek's Stream Order 6 classification and significant drainage area mean water levels can vary seasonally and with weather conditions.

Paddlers planning to use this access point should check current water conditions before launching, as the creek's characteristics can change significantly. The proximity to Coweta County means access to a more developed area, though specific amenities at The Slide itself are not documented. This appears to be a specialized whitewater access point rather than a general recreation area.
