It's gonna be a bit low for Wolf pen. It would be a bit boney but doable up there.
I would suggest High bank to Redding.
With a long stop an Hoop n' Hollar.
H 'n H at 3.5 is the best surf'n on the river.
See ya dare.

From my analysis of historical data I predict that Turner Bend will post a level of 2.9'-3.0' and agree with p'dog that putting in at Wolf Pen would be a little bony.

Another option would be to put in at the LIttle Mulberry (between Wolf Pen and High Bank) as it's contributing volume makes from there down okay at this level.

I've never been further up than high bank so, I'd love to do the little mulberry down, but I'm good with whatever.

Had a great time meeting all of you and paddling together today.

I hope we meet again.

Same here. Great group. I loved meeting off of you, and hope we get to paddle again some time. It was my first time on the Mulberry, and everyone helped make it a memorable experience for me. I'd like to give a special thanks to Brad for all the pointers you gave me, and an extra-special thanks to Kurt: that was really, really nice of you to play instructor for me for the day. I really appreciated it, and I felt like I learned a lot from you.

All in all, a great day, and I don't think we could have asked for nicer weather and foliage.

Glad you had a great day, Austin.

By the time we got to the take-out I'd noticed definite improvement in your paddling skill. Keep up the good work
