LOW BRIDGES

LOW BRIDGES

Description

Be aware that there are three bridges within the Racine Country Club. The first is visible from the take-out (the pool and eddies at 'All Evil') and should cause no problems (unless the center-river bridge-pier catches a strainer).

At high water (somewhere above 2000-3000 cfs) the second and third bridges will become serious hazards as there will be little-to-no clearance under them. In fact, at some higher levels, water will flow through the bridge railings. While it may be possible to get to shore (or even paddle around the ends of the bridges), many boaters will be in serious danger trying to escape being swept into these bridges.
