Introduction

The calendars below describe the "whitewater releases" tentatively scheduled for the Gauley River below Summersville Dam in 2010.  Note that by passing your cursor over the colored calendar cells the release information will appear in a pop-up text window.

Gage Information

Scheduled releases occur in September and October;  unscheduled releases occur year round.  For current levels, consult the boatingbeta MyFlows page.  The Gauley Festival, a major fundraiser for American Whitewater (you are a member, right?), is typically held the third weekend of September.

Notes

The water is released immediately upstream of the put-in for the Upper Gauley;  it takes approximately 4.5 hours for the water to reach the put-in for the Lower Gauley at Buck Lick Branch.
