Was quite fun. Get there early so you have plenty of time, though realistically none of them are hard enough or long enough to need special directions or orders. We put on Big Laurel around 10ish maybe, then Spring Creek around 1 and finally Brush around 5 maybe. It was 2 years ago so a bit hazy on the exact details. We'd never done any of them before, so definitely feasible to boat scout your way down if you are confident on that type of water.

Brush was super low. Could have almost jumped across the creek at the putin with your boat on your shoulder without getting feet wet. But once you go around the corner, there seemed to be enough water. The big drop needed more to aerate the landing. I think the Ivy gauge was around 350 or so and it had rained an inch the day before. I'd love to do it again with more water. Spring creek over a foot and Brush with actual water in it would be a very cool day.
