Triple Springs

Triple Springs is a boat ramp providing access to Mayo Creek and Mayo Reservoir near Roxboro in Person County, North Carolina. The creek is a medium-sized stream (Stream Order 4) with a total length of 20.71 miles and flows through terrain with significant elevation change, dropping 332 feet over its course. The average flow rate of 58.27 cubic feet per second and velocity of 1.77 feet per second indicate moderate water movement typical of a headwater stream system.

This access point serves paddlers and boaters looking to explore the upper portions of Mayo Creek's watershed. The stream's 16 feet per mile average gradient and location near the headwaters suggest varying water conditions depending on recent rainfall and seasonal flow patterns. Boaters should be aware that this is a relatively undeveloped area in the North Carolina Piedmont, and conditions can change significantly with weather.
