Anyone been down in a while? We are headed that way in about 2 hours and was wondering if we should be on the look out for anything particular.
Thanks

Re: cadron strainers??
FYI - the only access is to park at Pinnacle Bridge and do the short section to Hwy 65, or go from Hwy 65 down. We are working towards a permanent public access, but right now access options are very limited.

I've heard that into every life a little of it must fall,
but you'll never catch me complaining about too much of that southern rain.

Re: cadron strainers??
can you still put in upstream at Guy?
Re: cadron strainers??
There is a put-in north of Guy where Mill Road crosses at N35 21.250 W92 19.000. It adds an hour or maybe a little more than an hour of flat (but fairly swift) water above the Weidower put in that we used last year.
I don't remember exact figures and I can't find the trip report I did for that section a couple of years back, but I think it took me a little over an hour to get from Mill Road to Sara's Wave.
If I find the post, I'll link it back here.

Re: cadron strainers??
I measured it as almost 13 miles from there down to Hwy 65 bridge. How long that "feels" depends a bit on what kind of boat you're paddling; short and slow or long and fast.

Re: cadron strainers??
I couldn't find the post, but I found my GPS track for that day. It is 13 miles total, 8.4 of that above Sara's Wave (the first real rapid). When I went the water was at 4.0 and moving pretty good for those extra 8 miles but I was taking my time scoping out possible access points so it took me just over 2 hours to make the run from Mill Road to CCO, then 2 more down to highway 65 at a more normal pace.

We went and it was awesome!!! no strainers, but that was with the gauge on here reading 8ft and the board at the takeout reading 6ft.

Dang Reedo that means you went over everything. How long did it take you?

Re: cadron strainers??
Probably about hour and 45 or so. We were not in a big hurry either. Tons of fun!! It was 3.8 on sat when some went back for more.

There was an earlier report of a pine tree sticking out and blocking the surfing wave at Lunch Spot rapid, but it's gone now.
