Tuesday Lower Richland
Anyone that would like to join, I'm strongly considering a run on the lower Richland on Tuesday. Hoping for a level somewhere in the mid 3's. Mike Fagan

Re: Tuesday Lower Richland
reconfiguring the graph for the gauge into 12 hr intervals, making yesterday d-1 and adding tomorrow, makes projections easier. it could stay well above the 3' mark till noonish. I would like to see a comparison between mulberry above hwy 23 @ 2.6 (2.8 is low end of opt) and lower richland @3.5.

Re: Tuesday Lower Richland
Mike I think we are in, Im waiting to hear from Jeff (Hilbili) about driving up together. I've never done this section before and am unfamiliar with the shuttle. I hear it's a long one. I also was told that the level should be 3.4. BOB

Re: Tuesday Lower Richland
I agree that 3.4 is a good level for this run. It should be about that tomorrow. The lower section tends to hold up a little longer because you have Falling Water and some other nice tributaries entering. Tomorrow should be 70+ degrees and sunny, and I'm so ready for spring I'll carry my kayak down the river on my back just to get outside, so hope to see and meet you tomorrow!

Re: Tuesday Lower Richland
Have not heard from Jeff but I'll be there either way. Clay sorry you couldn't make it I always enjoy boating together. Jeff I'll be at the Cranford's super market on Highway 7 ( just outside the Hot Springs Village gates) at 7;45 am. Hope to see you there. BOB

trip report
You see me now a veteran, , of 1000 psychic wars, and 5 out of 6 swims today @ 3.5' !!! Not too cold, but I feel a little uneasy about how little it affected my mental state(the swims, not the cold). I know how serious things were, and was lucky to have 4 class 10 boaters bringing me along. Thanks again to Bob, Mike, Rick, and Tami.
