Located in Chattahoochee, Florida is the Chattahoochee River Landing Park. This park on the Apalachicola River is a location for a recording of flood waters over the years. The sign is located on one of the support pillars to the Old Victory Bridge. It shows flood high level lines for 5 different floods.

The river's flood stage is 66 feet and indicated on the bottom of the sign. It shows high water marks from March of 1925 up to March of 1998. A drone footage video shot in March of 2020 shows recent flood waters and closeups of the actual high water level sign and flood waters. (visit link)

This high water level marker/sign is south of the Jim Woodruff Dam and Locks that creates Lake Seminole which is fed by the Chattahoochee and Flint Rivers in Georgia.

Note: the black and white photo in the gallery is of the March 1925 flood.
