Cleanup at the Fishermen's Access Points (Blue Ford, Indian Rock, and Mouth of the South Branch) do not require a boat. GPS Coordinates: 39.50987, -78.60052Directions: From Green Spring, take Arnold Stickley Road approximately 4 miles to the Indian Rock Fisherman's Access on the left. The Blue Ford Fisherman's Access is approximately one mile further on the right.
Clarence Taylor Road from Springfield is gated midway to Springfield. Set your GPS to Green Spring, WV (Norton St.) as a via point to avoid a problem.
Taking advantage of two large river meanders, this is a popular canoe cleanup. A one mile shuttle allows for several miles of canoeing. There are several geocaches along the way.
Indian Rock is the takeout for a very pleasant and convenient canoe trip from Blue Ford to Indian Rock. The site director can provide a shuttle to the put-in. The terrain near the take-out is not suitable for small children, as the terrain is rugged and poisonous snakes have been found near the boat launch. The Indian Rock boat launch is suitable for power boats, and very comfortable for muscle-powered boats. After wet weather, the Blue Ford put-in may require a short walk or alternatively, 4-wheel drive (trucks, not Subaru's or Geo's!).
