Trip Reports
Log in to add a reportPlatoro Res Gauge said about 200cfs, Mogote Gauge said 1440. I think 800+/- is a good guess for what we were floating on. River *just* out of the banks at both portages. Floated at fishing access just above Spectacle Lake to Hwy 17 Bridge. 2 fence portages (both well marked by PVC Pipe), saw at least 6 barbed wire fences pulled out of the river for high flow, I expect to be in play at lower water. Class II, some manouvering required. Some low bridges may be problematic for rafts, or kayaks at higher water. Pretty float, took about 2 hours to go 6.5 miles, including portages. Some great looking surf waves, some on the fly, some with eddy service. Was not able to hitch shuttle, had to hike the whole way (on road), would bring bike next time. Pretty float.
