lee is up on the gauges. yesterday was a gamble and it was great a really fun day after the waterfall that we found. it might be even better today because yesterday it was hardly registered on the gauges.

Nate, did you guys run the waterfall you were talking about..the 15 footer? Where is it in relation to Lee, and will Lee be up for saturday at all? I'm in little rock, but if it's up for saturday I may head that way.

P.S. did you get any pics or video if you did run it, I'd love to see em.

Do not go to Lee Creek today! It won't have enough water to boat. We ran it yesterday but it was below a runnable level. The only reason the gauges are showing anything are because they are 60 miles downstream in Oklahoma. You will be wasting gas.

That 8-10 ft drop was cool and would have been better with water (it had an inch of water going over ~ maybe), but I doubt it was a first descent. Lee has been paddled for 30 years, somebody has checked it out before.

Well Crap! Thanks for letting me know before I scootered me way up there to get skunked Matt. That would've sucked.
Spanke, get the water hoses ready, we can point them downstairs, and get all kinds of first D's right there on campus. It'll be gnarly radical!

Well, maybe I'll head to Piney tomorrow or something. Where is everyone else gonna go?
