Ohoopee

The Ohoopee River rises in the interior of Georgia and flows southeast to join the Altamaha. Its tributaries, including the Little Ohoopee, wind through a country of woodland and wetlands. Native people and later settlers used the river valley as a route through the region. Sandbars and dark water mark its lower course, which carries the drainage of the interior toward the broad Altamaha and the Atlantic coast.
