Sounds very skinny at the intersection of the AICW and southern Brickhill River. This latter stream cuts into the western banks of Cumberland River, only a few miles north of the Georgia – Florida state line.

We ran aground trying to get into the Brickhill Rver at the south end last spring at low tide. So going south on the river yesterday, I was determined to find out what the depths were. It was mid-tide (about 3.5 feet up) and I had 9.6 ft on the sounder as we approached the green 63, then I got a blinking depth, then no depth at all which usually happens when there isn’t much depth or the water is muddied up. After passing the green and headed for the next red I suddenly had 22 ft on the sounder. We didn’t touch bottom, so I guess ignorance is bliss but I still don’t have a good idea of where the deeper water is at that intersection (if there is deeper water at low tide).
