Description

I recently found out that there is a visual gauge at the takeout on the downstream side of the bridge pillar. 1 foot will probably be an ok minimum, 2 feet would be great, and anything over that should be reserved for experts. Be careful of the bridge pillar at high flows, it looks like it could easily pin a boat against it. The takeout is directly after the bridge on the right.
