Bob Stout on Gulpha Creek:
We usually judged the water level by looking at the footing of the eastern most pier of the bridge on Ridgeway Road, downstream side. Water on the footing was enough to get through. If someone can get a visual on the footing and match it to the gage, we would have some useful information. REMEMBER NOT TO PARK ANYWHERE NEAR THE BRIDGE OR THE LAW WILL BE CALLED. Talk to the lady who lives on the southwest corner of the bridge (downstream, river right) and ask for permission to park in her yard.

We usually judge the water level by looking at the masonry apron on the downstream right side of the pedestrian bridge that is just off Shady Grove Road (there is a parking lot across Shady Grove) about a block upsteam of Hollywood Avenue. If the water is just on top of the low edge of the apron, there is enough water to get through.
Anyone in the Hot Springs area want to help out with the correlation?
