Gauge Description:

The paddler's gauge is painted on the river right bridge piling. -3" to +3" are the normal preferred levels, especially if you are driving very far for this run. However, locals run it much lower (down to around -5") and much higher (well over +6").

For the USGS gauges look for over 350 CFS on the West Fork of the Little River or Little River Canyon to be over 2000 CFS. These have proved very reliable as a good indicator gauges.
