Gauge Description:

The USGS gauge is on nearby Ivy Creek, and must be viewed as a rough guide only.

The Big Laurel gauge is painted on the river left side of the bridge at the putin and can be best viewed from river right on the downstream side of the bridge.  -6 inches is minimum runnable, and 4 feet is roughly the upper cutoff.

Reference the French Broad R at Marshall gauge for the French Broad (the last 3.3 miles of the run).  The minimum suggested water level for the French Broad is 1200 cfs for this gauge.
