Sipsey Fork - Upper/Lower




Sipsey trip 4/9 - 4/10/05
Left sat morning when usgs reading read 675. When me Barry, and Sharon arrived at the recreation area the wood gage was reading about a few inches above 3'. After returning home and reading the usgs site again the level was at 397 at 4:30 on Sunday. "Hundred Yard Dash" was strong and rocking so we portaged it (about a 200yd portage). That was tough!. The current was flowing ~ 3mph according to the gps. Too fast to enjoy the trip. A couple of spooky strainers as well.
