Yes the falls is accessible again, I made it up there in June. Just be aware that there is 30' tall trees lurking under the water now since lake level was low for so long.

Here is the GPS quads if you've never been there.

Skip the falls till next year when the water is all the way back to summer pool. The falls are nice but it's a narrow ride back and the growth near the shores isn't worth a prop.

Load up on the adult beverages and get ready for a great time. Weather is lining up to be the best we have had in nearly 5 years.

Very good advice...

What are the lunch run plans?

Anyone having a problem loading "page 2" of this thread?? I can load page 1 and page 3, but not page 2.

First time at run for us....every yr it seems something keeps us from coming. My understanding is I have a spot to dock as long as I am a reg boat. First come first serve???? so just pick a spot???? Any details for out of towners is great!

There are spots reserved for the poker run boats. They are first come first serve as far as that goes. Sometimes there are spectator boats mixed in so it can get tight. If you are renting a houseboat on the houseboat row sometimes you can put your boat next to your house boat. Like everyone else has said bring plenty of alcohol. Other than that everything should be available between the state dock or Jamestown marinas.

There is usually plenty of dock space. If you aren't registered they will kick you off. Slap a good coat of wax on the waterline of your to combat the usual oily scum skirt!

That is good advice - someone just told me to do that this past weekend before getting to Cumberland..

Enter the run just so you can have a room and a place to park your boat. Don't have to do the run itself.
