Comments from a Utah newsgroup.<br /> <br /> <br /> Subject: Re: Running the Escalante in Spring<br /> <br /> There are two different categories of sites to watch:1. Snotel-which shows precip and SWC(snow water content) at 3 sites in the Escalante drainage-Widstoe#3, Clayton Springs and Donkey Reservoir. 2. The USGS sites(Pine creek, Escalante(which is below the confluence of the Ecsalante and Pine Creek) Boulder Creek and Deer creek) monitor daily streamflow in CFS. At each of these sites you can glean historical data, about 50 years worth. <br /> <br /> If you look at the USGS map of flow sites <br /> http://waterdata.usgs.gov/ut/nwis/rt you'll see that there are four<br /> clustered sites on the Escalante. One is the main stem Escalante. The<br /> others are Pine Creek, Deer Creek, and Boulder Creek. If you're<br /> running all the way down to the Lake, it's really the sum of the four<br /> that's most interesting.
