Gauge Description:

230 cfs is about the minimum for the top part. It has a rock bottom in the first few miles and the last few miles. You could possibly float this stretch lower but the beginning and end would be scrapy. Since it is mostly flatwater, you could run this part as high as you feel comfortable. The last rapids stretch could reach Class 3 with good water.
