Anyone know how Eddyflower sets up their flow ratings? Right now, there are 8-10 runs in Arkansas that Eddyflower lists as "Crankin'", including the Cossatot near Vandervort (18 cfs or something like that). (See
http://eddyflower.com/CountryDetail.aspx?StateId=33
I almost always use Fish's gauge page, but like the PDA-friendly version of Eddyflower when I'm away from the PC. Would be nice to have Eddyflower show meaningful info.

The Eddyflower page seems a bit unreliable. It says the Big Piney, Mulberry, and Cossatot are currently "
Crankin" or so fast you probably shouldn't float em. Fish's page has em all in the red (unfloatably low). I trust Fish more than Eddyflower. His page hasn't screwed me over yet.
And Fish, if you are reading this,
THANKS A MILLION 
for making the levels page. I use it
every time I plan a float

. Your page is irreplaceable.

I haven't advertised it much, but here's a lower bandwidth version of the gauge page that should be better for cell phones (or even PDA's, if you can find one in a museum). :-)

Here are some really small radar images too that you can load up if you don't have much of a connection:

Thanks for the low bandwidth links, Fish. They're perfect for my legacy cell phone plan with 1MB of data/month.

Yeah, Thanks Fish for the low bandwidth page and radar links. I'll definitely keep them in mind if I ever get a cell phone!
