Erste Augustwoche bei Standartablass von 5Kubik gepaddelt. Wunderschöne Waldschlucht,wenn nichts anderes Wasser hat. Wanderweg begleitet den Bach...ein Traum

A 110 lo spot diventa un buco ritentivo e pericoloso.

At 110 the spot becomes a dangerous and retentive hole.

The gauge at Carasco is indirect: on the Entella river, a very long way downstream of the take-out and below several important tributaries.
If the gauge is already on the low side and going down: this section is likely already dry/too low.
If the gauge is medium or high and increasing: this section is likely flooding.
Always be mindful of where the gauge is located.

140 cumecs is a perfect level. At 150 it's still good but more hole and less wave.

"Zambesi" rapid starts here: 46.136358,12.106353
Can be scouted and portaged on river left. Scouting recommended especially at high flows (two big and retentive holes at the end).

At 95cm (@Agordo) all major rapids are class IV

Even if the gauge seems to be perfectly placed at the put-in, it's still upstream of a couple of potentially major tributaries so care must be taken: especially in case of heavy rains the level in the river could be way higher than shown by the gauge

A tree blocking the whole river a bit after putting in has been reported. Also further down where the rivers splits into different channels utter care must be taken since some of the channels are blocked either by trees or river-wide cables and they only be seen after entering the channel. Precise location of these dangers is not known

Following the recent heavy rains: at 160cm is fully flooding, at 100cm is more of a continuous class IV (with trees and cables strewn across the river) than a III-IV. More observations at lower flows are needed to adjust the calibrations.

Bootstransport mit den Rhätischen Bahnen (RhB)

Jetzt (im November 2023) fahren noch die letzten Züge mit den geliebten alten Gepäckwagen.
Nachher ist definitiv fertig damit.

Für den Bootstransport gibt es jedoch weiterhin die Tickets für Wassersportfahrzeuge (Fr. 12.- Einzel Fr. 15.- Tageskarte).
In den neuen vierteiligen Triebzügen gibt es in allen vier Zugteilen unterschiedlich grosse Multifunktionsabteile für Sportgeräte, Gepäck etc.
Trotz grösseren Bemühungen ist es leider aktuell nicht möglich, von den RhB verlässliche Informationen zu kriegen, wie diese Abteile für den Bootstransport genutzt werden können und dürfen. (Anzahl Boote, maximale Dimensionen etc.)

Nachfolgend unsere sehr provisorischen Informationen über die Transportmöglichkeiten.
Diese Angaben sind keine offiziellen Angaben der RhB und ohne jegliche Gewähr.
Das grösste Multifunktionsabteil befindet sich in einem der beiden mittleren Zugteile.
Darin lässt sich etwa folgendes unterbringen, vorausgesetzt, es ist nicht anderweitig belegt:
ca. 3 bis 4 WW-Tourenboote, Playboote, kurze Solokanadier oder ähnliches.
Wie es mit Abfahrtsbooten, Tandemkanadiern, Slalombooten etc. aussieht, ist ungewiss.
Inwiefern die kleineren Multifunktionsabteile in den anderen Zugteilen für Bootstransport nutzbar sind, können wir hier nicht sagen.

The Chickenlinedrop befor Lucifer's Slide is at 20 m³/s kind of siphon. Be careful. Te3tbud6y

Run on 4/11/2023 at 28 cm, putin in village Masanti di Sotto. All clean but the big rapid at the landslide deserves a close look (we portaged). Otherwise fantastic river. The dam at the take-out was releasing and the section below looked good to paddle as well. Team Nirjhara

Run 3/11/2023 at 210cm. We aborted the run after 1km after second riverwide tree. Portage very difficult at river level. Inspection from the road showed more trees in the lower part. Watch out! Team Nirjhara

Run 30/10/2023 at 215cm, medium level. Nice run, all clear. Team Nirjhara

Run 31/10/2023 at 80cm, level going down. This was too low, maybe better to check the Upper Taverone instead.
