Cool Smartphone apps for Kayakers

Post by mathewsjimm » Mon Nov 05, 2012 12:31 pm

Found a cool app called Riverflows. It lets you save any usgs reading as a favorite. Makes it super easy to see if any of your spots are running. Anyone seen any other cool apps?

"TVA Lake Info" gives you the release schedule for the Ocoee River and other TVA dams.

Paddling.net has the "Launch Sites" app which seems to be a little thin on Arkansas information but has potential.

I have one called Launch Sites on my iPhone. I think it was free or .99. :kayak:
