The flow for the spill way is determined by release out of Sinclair Damn.
At low levels, the run is VERY slow. Expect to be on the water for at least 2 hours. If you just plan on playing around at the powerhouse, low levels are a bit dangerous. The rapid becomes very boney.
At high levels, the main run gets moving fairly fast. It can be run up to almost any level. The upper waves and the powerhouse rapid only get better and smoother as the water level rises.
At flood stage the run becomes a bit more dangerous due to trees. The powerhouse rapid really washes out after about 10,000cfs.
