Hello fellow boaters,

I'm heading a group of oar-boaters trying to run the Main Tuolumne and we were planning a 2 day trip this Saturday-Sunday. Unfortunately, flows are looking to be about 5000, which borders medium-high and high water. We're competent (Grand Canyon, Rogue, etc) but unsure of this run at these flows - none of us have done it. Anyone care to weigh in on whether its a good idea to run or bail? We seemed comfortable with the idea of 3500 for a flow, but it's gone up.

IF WE BAIL on the Tuolumne, what would you recommend as a good overnight trip (preferably class III-IV, we'll run V's if they're 'straightforward') somewhere in California? We're in Tahoe, but willing to drive. It seems like flows are just skyrocketing everywhere, so the run would obviously need to be runnable now in an oar-raft.
