Low Water Cheoah

With no natural flow close to Knoxville, Anton, Todd, and I decided to go do a low water Cheoah run at just under 600cfs. With the water being low, we chose to only run the last 2 miles of the run from the forestry service road to the lake. This section of the Cheoah channels well to provide some technical creeking. The Big Un's middle double drop line was still runnable at this level and that seemed to be the line of choice for most boaters.

This day I borrowed Gary's Liquidlogic Jefe Grande again since Jackson Kayak still has not replaced my broken Mega Rocker. I hope to get a new boat later this week. Even though the water temperature was quite cold, it was a great day to be on the river with many friends including a large crew from Knoxville (Tera, Tony, Tom, and too many others to mention).

Till next time...pray for rain!
