The most important information
to look at (in the Blue Box above) is the
"cfs"
reading
(cubic feet per second), which represents
the current "River Flow"
being released at the Canyon Lake Dam, influencing our section of the
Guadalupe River, ultimately where you will be tubing! (Note: To
determine
the actual River Flow, add the "Turbine Setting" to the "Outlet
Works Release" and it
should equal the "Flow at Sattler Gage") If you find that things don't
add up correctly when
determining the actual River Flow, it's most likely due to faulty or broken
river gages, which happens from time to time. The reading on the
"Flow at Sattler Gage" should represent the "actual river
flow".
Refer to the following chart to determine the current river conditions measured in "cfs"...
|
*** Below 100 cfs... see photo below *** (River Levels below 100 cfs are slow & add extra float time) |
||
100 - 499 cfs = Recreational |
||
500 - 799 cfs = Challenging |
||
800 - 1199 cfs = Strenuous ** Caution is Advised ** |
||
1200 cfs and above = NO RIVER TUBING (Considered Too Dangerous for Tubing) |
Guadalupe River Levels Back Up for the 2010 Tube Season!

| Guadalupe River
(Horseshoe Loop) at 52 cfs on 7-15-06 Float time around the Loop: about 2 1/2 hours... Distance around the "Loop" ( 1 mile ) At 52 cfs, the Horseshoe Loop section of the
Guadalupe River is slow, but still popular and floatable in most areas.
The water is refreshing and feels great under the Hot Texas Sun, but
occasionally at low levels, your tube may hang up on riverbed rocks in
shallow places and you may have to move your tube back into more floatable
water. |
