How do you drain a river? Just curious.
was wondering the same thing...


I would assume they are controlling the amount of water with what is called a dam.


The Saluda Dam or Saluda River Dam located approximately 10 miles (15 km) west of Columbia, South Carolina on the Saluda River. Construction on the dam began in 1927 and was completed in 1930. The purpose of the dam is flood control, hydroelectricity, recreation and water supply.


Here are a few examples.

Dams on the Saluda include:

- The uppermost dam on the Saluda River, on the border of Greenville and Pickens Counties, forming Saluda Lake
Lake
- Saluda Reservoir Dam near Berea.
- the old textile mill dam in Piedmont
- The textile mill dam at Pelzer
- The Pelzer Mills Dam, near Williamston
- The Lee Steam Plant Dam near Williamston
- The Holiday Dam near Belton
- a still-operating dam built to power the textile mill in Ware Shoals
- Greenwood dam, creating Lake Greenwood
- Dreher Shoals Dam creating Lake Murray

I'd like to change the world, but they won't give me the source code.

Well, judging from the check in thread, this might be the smallest ride I've experienced with the group. Since it's an "open ride" do more people show than are "checked in"?

Probably just a smaller ride due to weather and that it is the ride before Harlan, which is further away and more expensive than any other East Coast ride we have.

I love Gulches & planned on attending, but I have to go to a vendor event.

I wish I could make it to Harlan. My goal is to make it next year.

I feel ya, my goal is to be there around 9 Friday morning. Get camp set up and ready to wheel. Hopefully the few days of sun between now and then will dry things up a little bit.

What is the point? Are there that many people still without power?
