As of today(4/1), there is a new rock in the runnable channel at the bottom of Backyard Boating which makes the rapid very very marginal. Be Careful

The above photo is the morning after High water. It was a little boney in this photo. This is my 14 year old sons 1st run of the brook.

Guage for Ridley Brook:<br /> From the takeout bridge, look at downstream at the tunnel under the railway. the right wall of the right side has a flat ledge. If the water is just reaching this ledge on the front corner, the level is just about minimum. From that minimum level, things just get better. (until it gets too high) You want enough water to get down, but not too much
