The Chattooga River, once frequented by dedicated canoeists and anglers, transformed into a cultural icon following the release of Deliverance in the early 1970s. The novel and film immortalized the river's powerful torrents, drawing a diverse array of visitors and shaping its place in popular imagination. Its mystique now rivals that of literary landmarks like Twain's Mississippi and Conrad's Congo, highlighting the river's significance beyond its geographical presence.
