<P> The Little Pee Dee River is a 116 - mile - long (187 km) tributary of the Pee Dee River (which originates in the Appalachian Mountains where it is known as the Yadkin River). The Little Pee Dee technically arises near Laurinburg, North Carolina as Gum Swamp, which flows southward, receiving several small tributaries, across the South Carolina border into Red Bluff Lake, near McColl, South Carolina . The lake is at an elevation of 135 feet (41 m) above sea level, and from the outlet of the lake, the flow is called the Little Pee Dee River . The Little Pee Dee River is named after the Pee Dee Indian Tribe . In fact, today the Pee Dee Indian Tribe still occupies some of their ancestral lands, although the tribe only consists of just over 200 enrolled members . </P> <P> The Little Pee Dee is a sluggish meandering blackwater river that ranges between 10 to 25 feet (3 to 8 m) wide and 6 to 10 feet (2 to 3 m) deep in its upper reaches . It is navigable only by canoe or other small craft . Some parts of the Little Pee Dee River are nearly blocked by low - hanging tree branches . It is bordered by a swamp area that features bald cypress, sweetgum, oak, tupelo and other hardwoods . It flows southeastward, roughly paralleling the state border until it receives the somewhat larger Lumber River (a National Wild and Scenic River) near Nichols, South Carolina, from which the much larger river flows more nearly southward until it joins with the Pee Dee near Yauhannah, South Carolina . </P>
