Water was nearly perfect at this float level. Had six kayaks and one canoe. Dragged in just a few places and most of the low areas were easy to read. It would seem a three inch drop in the water level would make for a float that would take more care getting through the low spots. Overall, a great day and a pretty float. Did not see another boat on the river.Water was nearly perfect at this float level. Had six kayaks and one canoe. Dragged in just a few places and most of the low areas were easy to read.

The water level was good through most areas. There were a few tricky sections, including one where we pulled the canoes through manually. There were several very long, still pools in this section (and further downstream as well).The water level was good through most areas.
