Featured Story
The Tellico River flows from its headwaters in Cherokee County, North Carolina on into Tennessee. As it does, it supports a self-sustaining population of wild native brook trout. Sadly, despite its classification as “Wild Trout Waters” by the North Carolina Wildlife Resources Commission in 1991, the Tellico also flows through the Tellico OHV System, an off-road vehicle playground. Famous for unprecedented ecological damage caused by man and machine, the Tellico has been the scene of a struggle to reign in these impacts.
