The gage is over 35 miles downriver from the put in with many major tributaries downstream. The significance of this is that the river may have dropped or risen substantially though the gage reading appears optimal.
The gage at Burrells Ford bridge is a better indicator of water level. Minimum levels are 1.3 ft and upper limits are likely around 2.0 ft.
Correlation information is needed to develop better guidelines. If you are visiting Burl's Ford, please report readings on the staff gage below the bridge (date, time, level) on the SC side using the "Add a Comment" button at the bottom of this page.
