Well...its flow is pretty high now...how long will the snowpack there sustain that? Hard sayin'.
I look at a comparable season with similar snowpack...say, the spring of 2011. Folks were kayaking the narrows in June. Flow was big through May.
I'm going to guess...won't be open for through hiking by 22 May.
Looking at the USGS gage data, looks like last year it didn't open until later May.
