After a long day outdoors Econo Lodge Inn & Suites is a tremendous site to spend a night or two, and do stop by Wateree Dam while you're here. Much rain falls at Wateree Lake; the wettest month of the year is mostly July, that's the one that rains the most; April is the month with the least moisture. Eagles Nest is beautiful and can be made out from Wateree Lake; a magnificent place to camp here at Wateree Lake is Columbia/camden RV Park. This lake is so

...per mile, and the rapids fairly continuous when there's enough water. Unlike the nearby stretches of the Catawba, this stretch is choked with boulders & contains several islands & multiple channels. Scenery is spectacular, the river coursing through a mini-canyon with granite walls & no development visible from the water. Right now it can be run only when the Catawba is very high, after extended periods of heavy rain. A good indicator is the Catawba USGS gauge at Rock Hill (basically the discharge from Lake Wylie Dam). If it's running well over 10,000 c.f.s., there's probably some flow spilling into the Great Falls run. It needs about 3,000 or 4,000 c.f.s. spilling into the dewatered stretch to be worth running. At these levels it's low class 3. At 10,000 c.f.s. in G.F.(about 20,000 c.f.s. full flow) it's big water class 3-4 & alot of fun. Under the new Catawba/Wateree relicense agreement, there will be (I think) about 28 scheduled releases beginning next year. But it appears that the flows into G.F. will be about 3,000 c.f.s., kind of on the low side. This has great potential as a c... |
