Shirley Kokidko reported Wednesday from Fargo Ramp on the Suwannee River.

She says it’s as far from the dry bottom of the ramp to the river as from the top to the bottom of the ramp, and you can easily walk across the river.

Very low water, Fargo Ramp 2025-11-12, Suwannee River, and deadfalls

The Fargo Gauge read 1.55 feet (92.55 feet NAVD88) at 3:45 PM Wednesday, November 12, 2025. It’s slightly lower than that now (9:30 AM Saturday).

Here’s a video Shirley took:

There were no power boat trailers parked, presumably because there’s no water to immerse the trailer. Even if you dragged a power boat into the river, the prop would be on the bottom.

Also, she wrote, “The first blockage after the bridge, there is room on the left to get by. I didn’t go further, too many trees in the river at this low level.”

That’s the blockage we call US 441 Deadfalls on the WWALS map of the Suwannee River Water Trail.

She did paddle upstream, and reported there was difficulty even getting past the Norfolk Southern Railroad Bridge, as well as some dragging-low water above that.
