| Gauge Reading | 4.1 ft at ANTIETAM CREEK NEAR SHARPSBURG, MD |
| Flow | Medium Flow |
Ran this section twice in May of 2025 at 4.1ft. I personally wouldnt run it much lower just because some sections could get very scrappy 3.8 would probably be my minumum. We put in on Wagamans Rd where there is a new park with very easy access for boaters. There were no serious strainers, just a few trees here and there that were very easy to avoid. There is an adventure park or something not far from the put in and at water 5 feet and above could be very dangerous because they have a few rope bridges low over the creek. Other then that this is a great run with a little more excitement then the lower section
