Didn't see the footage, but sounds similar to something we saw on the Calawah a few years ago.

Corey, Jimmy Leons, and I were down brat fishing and came out of the Noose Hole only to find still water. Lots of puzzled looks amongst us.

Big slide fromt he right side of the river had essentially dammed the river. We had to sit and wait for river to cut a path through the material to get the boat through ... about 20 minutes or so.

Needless to say the river was way out below ... but fortunately, the hillside wasn't all mud and hasn't caused much problem since.

Weird feeling though when the river was totally different in character than it should be coming around a corner
