On Escambia River

The Escambia River is the lower part of a single river whose upper reach in Alabama is called the Conecuh River. Wikipedia gives a combined length of 258 miles. The name changes where Escambia Creek joins, just downstream of the Alabama–Florida line. From there the river flows south through Escambia and Santa Rosa counties to Escambia Bay, an arm of Pensacola Bay. The Northwest Florida Water Management District says the river runs about 54 miles from the state line to Escambia Bay and ranks it as Florida's fourth-largest river. Its drainage basin covers 4,200 square miles, and only 10 percent of that is in Florida. Upstream in Covington County, Alabama, the Conecuh is dammed at Gantt Dam and Point A Dam.
