Ocoee or Rockport this weekend. Anyone out there?
« on: August 19, 2010, 03:38:11 PM »
So I am leaning one way, but considering both. Anybody up for some boating?
Hello "Memphis whitewater".... Anyone there?

If there is natural flow that isn't Bear Creek....than that will be the leading option I think.

Bear Creek(west) is not natural flow.

They are releasing from Remmel Dam at noon right now which means that the water will not be full at the ledge until 3pm.  That would still give you 4+ hours at Rockport.
If you paddle like a girl then you must be pretty good!

I was rooting for Rockport a bit, but Ocoee wins again. Hope we get some more memphians on the water this weekend other than the few I already know about.
