Woodall to the lake

Gauge Reading1.29 ft at CHATTOOGA RIVER NEAR CLAYTON, GA
FlowLow Flow

Paddled 11/5/22 with online gauge at 1.29ft. It was pretty low but I think it could be paddled even lower. First time running anything below Woodall. I think it was a good level for a first time trip, although I think a little more water would have actually made a few of the rapids easier. There is a log at the base of a large rock in the middle of the river at corkscrew. All of the flow goes river left. The log is at the base of a big rock that is on the far right side of all the flow. It really didn't factor into to the line, but as you know sometimes we get knocked off line and i could see someone ending up over there so it's something to be aware of. It was a really fun section even at the low flow.
