Have you managed any comparisons between what it predicted & what actually happened?

People submitting KS videos don't generally use tour operators. You'd have to find out what Chilean law says about this (& remember that he is just as capable of seeing this discussion)

Totally random, very old boats on eBay seem to go for far more than a kayaker would pay for them.

It probably wasn't more than recommended retail price, just more than someone else was prepared to sell it for.

£10 pass includes Ice Canoeing along with 20 other outdoor films: https://www.londonmountainfestival.com/finalists

New series about the risks they took - episode 2 finishes with canoeing at 43 mins (you have to register to see it):

Helmet is probably to hold the Comms system & camera. Series is still available on Dave, with a new one about the risks they took just being shown. Episode 2 starts with the separation & polar bear (you need to register): https://uktvplay.uktv.co.uk/shows/expedition-with-steve-backshall-unpacked/wat...

There's also river.app or whitewater.guide

Basically it will stop working anyway when EA / NRW update how they supply their data & due to the way it was set up it isn't a quick fix, whilst the app has been designed to cover all the mistakes made when setting up the original website.

The weir above Iford also has an Archimedes screw that takes most of the water. Fish pass at right side is too narrow for a kayak, but slot down centre does run. Suggested take out at freshford has private property : keep out signs all around field, the alternative river left above bridge is quite s...

Website is a mess of fixes on temporary patches which he hasn't the time to repair, whilst the app has started from scratch & will have other features in time.

Starts with mention of sea kayaking in Scotland:

If you've been playing in tide races, should be no problem.

Plus rainchasers website is being replaced by an app (of same name)

Lullington weir has been changed again, so do inspect, but easily portaged. 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 (downstre...

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...

includes a bit of Peak District paddling at 3 mins (& climbing at 32):

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...
