Van Someren, TomEdmond, Brian; Van Someren, Tom The river was high and murky, almost muddy. Most obstacles could be avoided but one totally swamped me out. I lost my glasses, hat, and GoPro. Several places had substantial haystacks but none of these were problematic. This stretch would benefit from some cleanup when the water is lower.The river was high and murky, almost muddy.

There are several places in this stretch that were difficult to navigate. A spring trip with a chainsaw would help clear many of these up.This water level was nearly perfect for paddling.

The water level was at a near perfect CFS rate, as one would have to try to get stuck on shallow gravel areas. An extra 100 CFS would make the river condition ideal, with lots of spots having fun riffles with small standing rolling waves. There are several trees that need a chainsaw taken to them to make this section completely trouble free for the average newbie kayaker.We got in at exactly 1100 hours and reached the take-out point at 1730.

There were several obstacles along this stretch, but all could be cleared fairly easily (except one very large sycamore tree across the river). I think a canoe could fairly easily make this trip, although the put in and takeout are not very convenient.The water level was nearly perfect for a good trip.

Ligon, DayEdmond, Brian; Ligon, Day The day started out with a south wind. By 1600 hours, the wind had shifted to the north and slowed our progress in several still pools. With experienced paddlers, this river level and even higher could be attempted even in a canoe. It's probably not a good trip for novices or children.The day started out with a south wind.
