	OK, now that I have you attention ....   Look at this web page and make an informed decision as to where the Cheoah falls on this scale. John Kobak, the Keelhaulers webmaster, is going to add it to this page and wants to get it in the right spot. You can just add a message or send me an email.   http://tinyurl.com/6fkl6w   Thank,   Larry

29 or 30ish. <NT> hardboater New

Agree. ReformSchooler New

37! <NT> overyerhead New

@ 1000 cfs probably 28-29 - Def not 30 - Numbers and Top Yough I would put above Cheoah cbkoontz New

28.5 <NT> Skully New

WTF?!! dude Tellico is listed as a 28- no way only a .5 difference between Tellico and Cheoah... Jayrockin New

tellico is overrated bankfull1 New

If people are looking for a fool proof rating system, they are in the wrong sport... RUwet New

There's no fool proof rating system, but I think they have advantages. SciFisch New

ok, you tell me how this more complex rating system helps you know more about the cheoah.... RUwet New

Pretty much all you need to make it down any river environment in the SE: bankfull1 New

Nothing can substitute for actually seeing the run SciFisch New

No doubt the rating system is beneficial information.  Just some people rely on it too much, that's all i'm sayin'. RUwet New

Lower Gauley easier than Upper Ocoee no way! <NT> monkeywrencher New

No joke. That is just plain wrong and inaccurate HarrisonMetzger New

I think the LG is easier than even the regular ocoee. I take people to the Ocoee first because it's roadside, but janedoe New

30 <NT> SciFisch New

Rapids aren't that tough, but it's long (Especially when it's 30 degrees F and snowing. I might be biased.) <NT> SciFisch New

familiarity breeds contempt thumper New

It is really hard to compare the Cheoah to a lot of those rivers cheoahman New

at  850 or 1000 cfs, 28 or 29.  At 1600 or above, 30 or so. peterelkon New

not as hard as 5 falls at 1.8 and up . .. ralf New

The Chatooga is like home to me, so I may have underrated it. peterelkon New

I've only done it one time, recently, at 1000 cfs (I think - is that the Sat release level?) and here's my 2c GRITS New

You need to get rid of the class VI rating on that scale. <NT> Pinecricker New

Don't know the appropriate number, but it doesn't belong in the class V category.  Not one rapid on it is class V. <NT> curtis_elwood New

this reminds me of my ongoing discussion of difficulty green vs... tonyvarvoutis New

I'd agree with that. Skully New

Triple crowning to me is way more intense than running everything on Overflow. bankfull1 New

didnt you see the disclaimer? Skully New

Don't have to worry about the green coming up quickly?  didn't paddle mothers day then, huh? RUwet New
