Hercules Glades Wilderness - Long Creek

Does anyone know if Long Creek flows year around? Heading there this weekend and curious what the water situation is.

I'd be surprised if you find any water. Better bring your own.

May be a little late, but I went in there around this time last year and Long Creek did have water (albeit in pools). I think you could find a pool or two most of the year, likely below the falls. If you got desperate you could hike to Beaver Creek at the edge of the wilderness, which should have plenty of water year-round.
