We discuss safety when wading tailwaters during every trip.
This video is a reminder to obey the warning of the siren and exit the water.
This appears to be the lower Illinois River below Tenkiller.
The generators have been down for approx. 2 years, but are functioning again, which may have been a contributing factor here.
Check the generation schedule and exit if the siren sounds or the water begins to rise and you are too far downstream to hear the siren.
