Tuckasegee, West Fork - Thorpe Dam to Thorpe Powerhouse on Tuckasegee Reservoir (NC)
Approximate - nearest available gauge. Use as general reference only.
Park here to begin the winding trail down to the base of High Falls. Stay on the trail all the way to the river to avoid launchinc above some huge unrunnable waterfalls. This trail, like the releases, were negotiated by American Whitewater and our partners as part of the hydropower dam relicensing in the early 2000's.
