\r\n\t\t\tI have been to lusk lock park several times my self.My interst was the old lock built in the late 1800's.its a little off of the beaten path ,so to speak.If you walk left of the parking area,you will find path.Fallow it for 3 or 4 miles.The old lock will be to the right of the path.there used to be some old brick\/stone buildings ,but you really had to look for them.They where run down and overgrown.I was raised near the area(at the other end of lusk lock road)and know it well.That entire area,a mile or so past the old lock,and the creek,is all state owned park land and there should not be ANY cables alowed there.The privite property starts at the top of the ridge on each side of the creek.\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tEdit<\/a>\r\n\t\t\t<\/div>\r\n\t\t\t<\/td>\r\n\t\t<\/tr>\r\n

\r\n\t\t\tI was on the river right around the same time you were, however, i was kayaking, and i will agree the water was very swift. My father and i started at the state park and took out at fredericktown ( we ran eagle rapid and played a little then walked back up stream) we had no mishaps. it took us a little less than 2 hours to complete this run (usually taking 3-3 1\/2 hours if not more) anyways, the river was a blast and wished it ran at these levels year round, but take caution as the previous comment stated, you will need to have some experience when the river is flowing at higher levels\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tEdit<\/a>\r\n\t\t\t<\/div>\r\n\t\t\t<\/td>\r\n\t\t<\/tr>\r\n

\r\n\t\t\tMy husband and I canoed Beaver Creek when the USGS gauge was about 1600 cfs. We are novice\/intermediate paddlers using a 16' Old Town Penobscot canoe. We put in first at Lisbon about 1\/4 mile from the Rt. 30 bridge below Willow Grove Park (beware lowhead dam in park) --east side of Lisbon. Very swift water calling for quick judgment to avoid small hazards. One very low bridge about mid-town, had to bend over to go under. Waterway would be impassable at higher levels because of this. One downed tree across entire creek west of town. Another downed tree east of Lusk Lock. Ended at State Park.\r\nPut in a second time (same day) at Fredricktown. Menacing waves for the less experienced as we went under the Fredricktown bridge. We were not able to stay upright for Eagle Rapids and tipped. Swift water, took ten minutes to reach shore. Remainder of the trip to the Ohio River was fast, but no mishaps. At this water level, a person definitely needs to be able to read\/ judge the rapids on this last section of the river.\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\r\n\t\t\t<\/td>\r\n\t\t<\/tr>\r\n <\/table>\r\n Add a Comment<\/a>\r\n<\/div >"}],"script":["\t\t\t\t\tdojo.require('dojo.parser'); ","\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tdojo.require(\"aw.formathelper.forms.dialog\");\r\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tdojo.require(\"aw.widget.Dialog\");\r\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tdojo.require(\"aw.formathelper.dialog\");\r\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tdojo.require(\"dijit.layout.ContentPane\");\r\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tdojo.require(\"dojox.layout.ContentPane\");\r\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t","\t\t\t\t\taw.formathelper.dialog.listener('comment',function(e)\r\n\t\t\t\t\t\t{\r\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\r\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t{\r\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\tdojo.xhrGet({\r\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\turl: '\/content\/Comment_view_section_river_reachid_3126_.rawhtml',\r\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tload: function(data, evt){ dojo.byId('zzqfp9pbliei977CommentGadget1-1').innerHTML=data}\r\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t}\r\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t);\r\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t}\r\n\t\t\t\t\t\t}\r\n\t\t\t\t\t\t); "]}
