	Pee Dee
		Just east of Charlotte, NC, at the confluence with the Rocky River (or the Uwharrie River, this is the subject of some debate), it takes on the name Pee Dee River, and is once again dammed at Blewett Falls Lake.
		In this lower section, the river is virtually at sea level, and the current will be controlled by tides which can affect the level of the river by five feet or so, making camping and paddling more difficult.
		The lower Pee Dee alternately splits and converges with other rivers, so you must be sure you know where your final destination is and take the proper channel.
