Re: cheat_training_group Low water lines

There are a lot of racers that moved up a slot because of your "delay"!  I was looking forward to seeing where you placed  but I'm so grateful you are all whole!! Proof that despite what our. On paddler friends think.  The drive is way more dangerous than anything we paddle!!!!

Thanks all. I'm a little bummed I wasn't able to race but more than happy to trade that for me and my wife coming away relatively unscathed from a very scary accident.  We're feeling very lucky right now! Enjoy Cheat Fest and watch out for those trucks coming home!

It is Dave Donohoe and his wife.  They are ok but their car is totaled.  Dave avoided a truck, spun out and then that same truck rammed their side and ripped off a door and air bags deployed.  Sarah stopped and has room for them and they will be up at the Fest to recount this Class V accident.

Low is fun! It channelizes pretty nicely, if you run it in your creek boat this low it's awesome boof and surf practice. 

See y'all tomorrow

I can't make sense of the Keelhauler's calculator. River's going down at Albright and Parsons. Albright's at 11.84 yielding a 1.78 level. Parson's is 3.89 but that means the Cheat is going up to 2.19 — doesn't make sense to me. I'm with John on low-mid 1's.

Cheers,
Mark

Yeah, today for sure. But my math skills are weak, and this is not a simple slope. Absent some local water from whenever the rain starts on Friday, I'd guess we'll be in the 1.3 to 1.4 range for the race. Lower than that and whatta we got?

You always go down the middle of High Falls regardless of level. 2 feet is still plenty of water for the middle line.

OK, y'all...this is starting to get ridiculous. It sure looks as if we may have the lowest levels in a while. FU rocks popping up everywhere! And the start will be a drunken goat rodeo/riot. But I digress. ;-)

Does anyone know/remember the low water line(s) at High Falls? I remember doing the bumpty-bump down some ledges on the far river left...but I can't remember whether we were just screwing around or if that was what really all that was available.

Past that, I'm in mortal dread of the cobble bar down toward the end...not because it's dangerous or anything. It's just that knuckle-walking near the end of a long slow race is just no fun at all. "Slow grinding death?" They better have beer AND IVs at the Fest tent Friday night.

Thanks...
JOHN
