Went up the yesteday an the level was 1.92 on the gauge, Triple falls had alot of water coming over it making the top two drops hard to run, due to the amount of water that was falling off the left side of the middle drop(right into a giant boulder) Anything below 1.7 and that should be out of play. At this level 1.92 the lip at hooker falls is perfect for sending beginners off, much lower and it begins to get scrappy and sticky at the lip of the drop. makeing it more difficult to come off clean.

I didn't think there was enough water to run the drop. As you can see, there was.
There was only about an inch of water flowing over the lip of the drop. It went like this; grind to a stop, push with your hands, and fall into the pool at the bottom.
This photo gives you a good perspective of the size of the drop. Leland's book states that the gradient is 120' over 1/10th of a mile. Pretty cool stuff.

I didnt want to land flat even tho the pool is about 2 feet deep so I delayed boof off the lip and landed nice and soft while ever one else was complaining about their backs ;-)

No way to gauge water level but its a little higher than shown in Wayne Gentry's Southern Fried Creekin'. Appeared to be the perfect level for all three.
Unsure of any way to gauge level except it was higher than level featured in Wayne Gentry's Southern Fried Creekin'....but it seemed about perfect.

The bottom is only 1' 1/2 deep. There is a auto boof about 3 feet to the right from the shelf that sticks out.
