A straight line from t| source to mouth would measure ? about 12K miles, but following the a stream the distance is considerab- ; ly greater. The drainage area comprises about 4.950 square Ij, miles, of which 3.550 square miles ig are in South Carolina. The river y lines' entirely above the fall line; the bed is rock, clay, sand or grav- I > el; and the declivity, as shown by j t the profile, is very large. The jj average fall in 104.75 piles above Columbia is 3.9 feet per mile; ( thence to the mouth of Green k River it is above 6 feet per mile. ( Above Green River the Broad is , a mountain torrent, the elevation ; of its headwaters being not less < than 2,500 feet. , I'or a number of years thelly , drograp)iic Branch of the Geolo- , gical Survey has maintained a ( gaging station at Alston, S.
