Mongaup River

the log that was at the head of the island just above (about 100 feet) the Delaware has been removed. Still never a good idea to go close to that island unless you are sure it is clear as it catches a lot and the waves are bigger further towards the middle anyway. And those without a bomber brace should skip the final rapid and just get out before the bridge as the final 'bridge' rapid is high speed and shallow a bad place to flip.

there's a spot about halfway through the run where the left side of the river has a very low tree bent over forming kind of a low arch, with maybe a few of feet of space to squeeze under it. It was too late to portage so I just went under the arch, but i had to lay down flat in my inflatable kayak as i passed under in order to fit. Current is moving swiftly there so be on your toes

Update: The low fallen tree I described has been cut down. The river is now clear

Eagle creek (the dam operator)energy generation forecasts for Rio on the Mongaup a day or 2 ahead. These are not guaranteed releases but projected generation based on day ahead energy markets. That means they are likely accurate but could change if there was a power emergency. - Thanks to Bob Nasdor and American whitewater for making this happen.
