Subject: Chatahoochie in July?
|
We are planning a SE trip for the first week of July. (We figure no
one else will be padding that week, the rivers will be almost empty,
right?)
Anyway....
I've never done the Hooch, does it often run in the summer? We are
looking to do Section three of the Chattooga, as long as we are down
that way, we could spend an extra day on the Chattahoocie, is my
thought.
Is this realistic?
Any otherClass 2 or 2-3 runs in that area I am overlooking? I'll
check the AW pages, but it is nice to get first hand info.
Thanks!

This has absolutely nothing whatsoever to do with your post, but the subject
line has been singing in my head all day. It's grown into a stanza...
Mistassini, January
Chattahoochie in July
Did an ender in November
But I can't remember why.

That's Chattahoochee, Dan. Lowest decent level is around 1' on the
Cornelia gauge, although it can be run a bit lower than that.
(http://waterdata.usgs.gov/ga/nwis/uv/?site_no=02331600&PARAmeter_cd=00065,00060)
It's .8 there right now. Might be runnable when you're down, might not.
Depends on whether the drought conditions they've forecast will come true.
