South Fork Catawba River
The South Fork Catawba River (better known as the South Fork River)[1] begins south of Hickory, North Carolina just northwest of the intersection of US Highway 321 and North Carolina Highway 10, at the confluence of the Henry Fork River and Jacob Fork River. The South Fork Catawba River travels 48.5 miles, passing along the communities of Lincolnton, High Shoals, McAdenville, and Cramerton, to Lake Wylie where its now submerged confluence with the Catawba River lies near the North Carolina and South Carolina border.
Signage on roadways crossing the river acknowledge it as the "South Fork River".
The river is part of the Santee River Watershed.
