Landowner at A36 bridge (Woolverton put in) asked that paddlers phone them beforehand to let them know, as they had a nasty incident where horse was scared by kayaks a few years ago. No problem crossing their field (downstream river right). 01373 830 261

All links on previous posts still working. Dartcom rain gauge broke & was replaced by a much more reliable model (metoffice rainfall predictions generally still over estimate though). EA river levels are supposed to be updating more frequently in the near future & NRW are changing their presentation...

EA do it for some rivers, e.g. Trent, but I haven't found a list of which other rivers are already available: https://flood-warning-information.service.gov.uk/station/2102 Jamie conn set up: http://isthedartrunning.co.uk/ NRW presentation is changing: https://naturalresources.wales/evidence-and-data...

Paddled at 0.45 on gauge (new link): https://flood-warning-information.service.gov.uk/station/3050 At least that level means there's enough to scrape the 'empty' section (although you have to portage the footbridge & weir). Several trees to portage, & the bridge mentioned by andya. Another foot of w...

You still have more flow heading out to sea for a greater percentage of time, than coming in. So high tide in the upper reaches is fresh water blocked from exiting, rather than sea water ingress.

A lot of rivers flow into the Humber, so paddling up it will be more critical on timings than down, but then I don't know where you'd launch or land at low tide...

Simonsbath (Sb) gauge (see also previous message): https://flood-warning-information.service.gov.uk/station/3242 To give some idea on how it relates to Brushford (Bf) - this weekend Sb started at 0.35, whilst Bf was 0.75; Friday Sb peaked at 0.94, Bf 1.33; then Sb dropped to 0.46, whilst Bf 0.94 & S...

See Tarr Steps to Dulverton thread for how Simonsbath gauge related to Brushford one (used by rainchasers & river app) this weekend.

Gauges belong to EA, not rainchasers. Some (e.g. swale - it peaked on Saturday & Wednesday) don't report that often, unless it's flooding (to save money) & rainchasers doesn't fill in the gaps, so doesn't show Wed peak. Some gauges are upstream of section, others downstream, so water arrives at diff...

Both gauges, at start & finish, are now online. Paddled today & I wouldn't bother getting on at Leeham - there are 2 heavy duty sheep fences above & below the low bridge & several tree portages (no barb wire though). There is another road bridge before you get to Brayford & the river is much more op...

The gauge at simonsbath peaked about 3 hours before the one at brushford (below dulverton) each time this weekend, so useful to know that if you check the level there it will tell you what will happen at withypool about 1 hour later.

The gauge at simonsbath peaked about 3 hours before the one at brushford (below dulverton) each time this weekend, so useful to know that if you check the level there it will tell you what will happen at tarr steps about 2 hours later (& dulverton at 3hrs)

Paddled this section today at about 0.65 on simonsbath gauge (which is just above the put in bridge). You can paddle down to first sheep fence (most have small eddies just above on left), then definitely portage about 500m before trees clear a bit & you can paddle down to next fence portage. There's...

Paddled today at bank full + levels (over 1m on simonsbath gauge - by time we reached it, it was in middle of flow!). The bridge / ford at suggested put in was just starting to flood over the top, there was a gauge here showing 0.8 - it was well above when we picked up the car afterwards). The main ...

Presumably the East & West Lyn of Devon are related to the Linns (waterfalls) of the North.

The Welsh guidebook lists 6 clydachs, 6 clywedogs, 3 dulais, 5 dulas, 2 gwili, 2 honddu, 2 llafar, 2 llynfi & 3 twrch. (I have also done both gwilis!)

Dee (Dentdale) interesting waterfall / canyon run Also the better known Welsh & Scottish versions Clydach - (mountain stream), numerous in Wales, several of which are classic & some which aren't, often gr4 ish Avon - most are flat, or only weirs, but Dartmoor version has some dirty drops 2 Troutbeck...

But you'll have to wait for the 5 mile driving restrictions to be relaxed in Scotland (& Wales)
