Default Fall Color Run

Lets meet under the bridge in West Middlesex PA at 10:00am on Sunday, October 23 and then shuttle the trucks to the take out. This fall trip down the Shenango River will be the same as last year but extended to the new McQuiston Boat Launch 1071 Nashua Rd, Edinburgh PA. The total trip is just under 10 miles. We will be floating though the PA state game lands with lots of wildlife. Also we could try the good food at Flat Iron to end the day. Hope to see you there!

This past Saturday Jim R did from the covered bridge to Hamburg with the gauge at 2.28 at the bridge, I also checked at the West Middlesex bridge. With rain on Thursday we should be fine. See everyone at 10:00

I assume it's the Sharpsville, PA, gage that is used for the West Middlesex to Nashua Road run? Any idea what the upper limit of discharge/gage height is for a safe run?

I was at W Mid, Nashau, and Pulaski yesterday around noon or so, looked high and swift. I looked at Connoquenessing at Harmony - similar findings.
