Park to seek out these ideal hydraulics for recreational paddling. Additionally, it is at these <br />flows that rafters and rafting companies will experience peak excitement and peak attraction <br />and marketing potential due to the features that are visually exciting and dynamic. Lower <br />Structures will continue to provide the usage that was seen at earlier flows. <br />The flows for July are in line with the declining late season river flows and provide for the <br />late- summer boating experiences including rafting, slalom and freestyle skill development <br />and training, inflatable traffic and late- season recreational boaters. At this flow the river sees <br />significant usage due to the warm weather. At these flows the features created in the park <br />will be less powerful and defined and will provide less variety for users but will still provide <br />for play - boating and recreational usage. The features will still be well- defined enough to <br />allow for a variety of freestyle maneuvers. Lower structures will continue to provide for <br />. alternative boating experiences. <br />August flows provide for late season usage including inner tube /ducky traffic, instructional, <br />practicing and training kayakers and some rafting. At these flows the structures will be <br />passable and will provide for inflatable traffic, late season rafting, and instructional and <br />recreational boating. Training athletes will continue to use the boating park but flows of this <br />level will not create hydraulics with the same power, definition, or variety seen at higher <br />flows. <br />September through December users and uses are similar to January -March usage. <br />Flows are currently sought from 8 in the morning until 8 at night with some exceptions for <br />competitive events. This time frame was selected because it allows for most usage and is <br />easily administered. <br />.O <br />
