It's State Bridge, BTW and yes good levels, but as stated above, watch for wind. Best wind I've ever seen there on monday. With a tall pile of gear and a mega rocker strapped to the bow, there were a few spots where I physically could not go downstream, but just had to pick a side and hold on to some reeds for it to blow by. And no we didn't get a late start. We were floating shortly after ten am and the wind came up immediately. It usually has the courtesy of waiting 'til 12 thirty or so. Turned an hour float into a 2.5 hour workout. Good stuff.
