	Harpeth River - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The Harpeth River is one of the major streams of north-central Middle Tennessee and one of the major tributaries of the Cumberland River.
		Reportedly the Harpeth was navigable by shallow-draft vessels as far upstream as Franklin in the 19th century during periods of high flow; this is hard to envision today.
		The Harpeth is Middle Tennessee's second longest unimpounded steam (the longest being the Buffalo).

		Tent and RV campers at the Lock A and Harpeth River Bridge campgrounds generally have their choice of sites during the week, but the facilities fill up on weekends and holidays.
		The Lock A and Harpeth River Bridge campgrounds are as different as night and day in some respects, but both U.S. Army Corps of Engineers facilities enjoy the loyal support of campers who apparently thrive on those differences.
		The fact that the Harpeth River Bridge Campground has a bathroom but no showers, no electricity and no water no doubt sends some campers scurrying for more civilized digs, but Lee said he enjoyed his first stay and likely will be returning.

		He was so proud of his steel mill that he lived within sound of his waterfall and is buried across the river.
