Gauge Description:

A link to the above Townsend guage is much better, and can be found at:
http://www.boatingbeta.com/cgi-bin/myflows.pl?view#bb_041
For Elmont to be running look for levels of at least 2.8 feet and rising. A better visual guage is located at Elkmont Campground at the put-in bridge. Bottom of footing - Good
6" above - Great
1-2' - Big Water fun

Why don't you replace the Maryville gauge information with the data and link for the Townsend gauge? The Townsend gauge is a lot closer and it appears that there is enough information about it to make the levels more accurate.

this section really should be re-ranked 2/4. The section right under the bridge has 3 nice rapids very close to each and with enough water easily make up a class 4 rapid.
