The River Store location is near the South Fork American River (SFA), in the town of Lotus, less than a mile from the river.  The Chili-Bar class III run is upstream of us 6 miles, and the Gorge class III run is downstream of us about 3 miles.  In between is a lovely class II run we know as C-G.

Water releases on the SOUTH FORK AMERICAN RIVER

  Water is currently available 7 days/week, 4 hours/day on weekdays, and 6 hours/day on weekends. This is, of course, subject to change at any time. Under the current “Wet year” status we will have guaranteed minimum releases until Labor Day 2023 of 1750 CFS on Saturday and Sunday from 7 am – 1pm and 1500 cfs on Monday-Friday from 8 am -1pm. Water levels can easily run longer or be higher, as the regulated flows are minimum required releases.
