Yeah, I guess it just underscores how quick off the mark we have to be when they do drop below 30.

Oh well. It's fall and there are plenty of other places that are awesome right now.

Ha! Nice.

Last Friday there was a total of four paddlers on the river--the four of us... Including one playboat.

I'm not sure if this is still the case, but if we get another warm Sat or Sun when the water is <30cms then there's bound to be many paddlers setting up a solid amount of safety (if you're patient). When I went a few weeks ago there were people with throw bags already set up at 3, 4, and 6.

26 for one day last week...

Indeed, that's what it was Friday. A bit too high for my taste unless a very experienced crew is present to do safety below drops. The last drop's rooster tail still throws you against the rocks below. So we just ran the usual rapids, good entertainment as usual. At this level, the seal launch requires some finesse in order not to land flat...

The level will likely not go down until next August...

Gah! They're still climbing. 26 for one day last week might be the lowest we'll get to see this year unless we all do a sun dance for hot weather and no rain.

Level is 27 and climbing slowly.
Any interest in running Saturday?

Ran 2-3,4,7 yesterday @ ~30.8 cms. There were lots of folk there and the lines went well. Many people styled 5-6, but it looked like a little too much for me.

Regardless, they're in and they're fun, and the level is still dropping :)

Get 'em while you can.

The current trend puts the level below 20cms by Sunday or Monday as long as we don't get very much rain between now and then.
