 | | The Flint River is a tributary of the Apalachicola River, approximately 150 mi (240 km) long, in the U.S. state of Georgia. |
 | | The river drains 8,460 sq mi (22,464 km²) of western Georgia, flowing south from the upper Piedmont region south of Atlanta to the wetlands of the coastal plain in the southwestern corner of the state. |
 | | In 1994, during flooding from Tropical Storm Alberto, the river crested at 43 feet or 13 meters in Albany, resulting the evacuation of over 23,000 residents, and creating one of the worst natural disasters in the state's history. |
