Default Float bassano dam to bow city

Hey there. Wondering if anyone has advice on this section of river. Looking to float this next year and wondering about conditions in sep .

I have read so far that the river is too low. But am not sure.

Your help would be appreciated

A lot of the summer not enough water to float that section. If it's low it would take days with a lot of walking... Definitely not advisable. Had one friend pulling thier car toppers with a crew miles down the river after they dropped the flow at the dam half ways through a drift... It's a long ways to start with not much flow when it is deep enough.
