I had a friend do it a couple years ago. They dropped down the creek from Sawbill into Smoke. He said it was a bit of an adventure but doable. I don't recall the time of year or the water levels. I can call him and review the details.

Called my buddy and he said he renamed his wife the "bogwalker" on that route. Very narrow creek.....like only as wide as the canoe with multiple small beaver dams to pull over. Beavers kept the creek deep....but narrow. His parting shot was "unforgettable".

I can tell you it's an awesome spot to shoot a black bear...have gotten two off that creek in the past. It's not the shortcut it appears to be on the map, so unless you are simply looking for adventure I'd take the long way around.
