I think you are talking about the Big Pigeon River (actually technically "Big" is not an official name for the river - it's really just the "Pigeon River"). I'm assuming LPR is for Little Pigeon River. The two rivers are completely separate. The Little Pigeon runs from past Gatlinburg to where it flows into the French Broad in Sevierville (downriver from Douglas Lake).



Just wanted to clear that up...
