October 2023 Table of Contents

“Seeing Rock City” by Alton Chewning 

The Ocoee is a superlative Class III run and one rocky river. 

“B-Side Streams: Short Cut Creeks”  by Zach Schiada

Zach looks for ways to shorten longer paddles.  The “B-Side Streams” series now builds on maps from Paul Ferguson’s “Paddling Eastern North Carolina”

“The Gist of the USGS” by Alton Chewning

A quick look at the United Stage Geological Survey leads us to the Bynum gage. The first of three articles on streamgaging.

The November issue of Carolina Paddler will have the second and third articles on River Gages.  The next up is “Gages, Stages, Discharge.”   Subtitled, “What’s a good level for paddling?”

Also coming is an interview with Scott Shipley (an Olympic slalom paddler and whitewater park designer)  and T.J. McCourt (a Raleigh City Parks planner) on the possibility of whitewater features at the proposed Neuse River Park.
