Default Is there enought water in the Main Lewis to get from the Forks to the Mouth

Anyone know if there is enough water to get from the Forks to the mouth. Wife is gone for the next couple of days and I want to be able to try the lower N. Fork and then head to the mouth or the Coulumbia.

Thanks in advanced. If you have a report please email me specifics.

Last time I looked, The gravel bar below Pekin and above the houseboat looked too low, especially on a low tide. I wouldn't try it.

For what it's worth I ran my jet boat up from the mouth to the rr bridge 2 weeks ago. The minimum depth I showed was 2.3 ft. between the floating homes and the rr bridge. I would wonder how much lower it would go if the tide was out????

Is the rest of the trip up any shallower? I'm interested in running higher up, what's it like?

On high tide --- yep.

On low tide --- nope.
