Gauge Reading200 cfs at WATAUGA RIVER NEAR SUGAR GROVE, NC
FlowToo Low

I didn't do this whole run, but took my kids in a ducky from old ford trail to the bridge before the community park. I'd consider at least 300 cfs to be a minimum personally. I'm from out of town so it was still fun, but I wouldn't consider this without quite a bit more water for rapid play. I will say from 105 to where we started looked pretty cool. Be aware that this section has multiple low bridges that would need to be portaged at proper levels.
