Usually about 4.5 -5 ft is LOW. You will be scraping/dragging quite a bit. I have run it up to about 11 ft which is haulin tail! :hammer: With the new rocks/ledge just downstream of the main st. bridge, the rocks out in the middle must be covered and the water should be pushing up into the trees on river right.

I've run it when you can see all the rocks sticking out of the water at the pool below the mainstreet bridge. You just have to run the lower section
It could be worse, it could stop raining

where does the lower section start? What's the lowest you can paddle that section. I did spadra a long time ago and had fun but never had the time to go back when levels were right. Any good waves in the town park? It looks like they've moved a few rocks. ty
