I heard that Lee Creek was on the low low end today, and that Mountain fork had a bunch of water at Natural Dam. It runs into Lee Creek close to there, so that and some other creeks are what brought the gauge up to a higher level. The parts that we normally boat won't be up tomorrow.

The Mulberry is going though, it was 2.2 at 6:30 at Turner Bend. They had a bunch of heavy rain at the headwaters, so it should be going tomorrow.

From what I read in the topic below I think the Lee gauge (which is far downstream from the section typically paddled) was misleading. It was barely there today and will be most likely be too low tomorrow.

Gary,

thanks for looking me up. I keep watching the weather. Seeing if the Tot is gonna get hit in the next day or two. Doesn't look promising.

OK I just found the Turners Bend web page and gauge reading. Cool!
Looks like it might be decent tomorrow. Anyone who wants to go or meet me there give me a shout. Thanks for the help IYAK!
Chris, good to hear from you! drop me an email or call sometime. Remember you are heading to the Esses with me next time it's up, right?!
If all else fails I will drive to Rockport tomorrow or Sat....

I was the one that passed up on the esses with you that day in July because Tim had his son with him. Would love to go in the future and have been working on my skills at Rockport. You also mentioned Big Creek. Anyway, my name is Chris also and you can call me or pm me anytime :D
