Description
This is why running upper Cedar Creek at high water is bad for your health. Then again none of the drops are so steep and the banks are not so confined, that you wouldn't be able to pull over and scout stuff like this. This photo was taken when the gauge said 2.1 feet and going down. If it was at 2.1 feet and going up then it would most likely have been higher here since the gauge is about 3 miles downstream.
