Gauge

Gauge Description:

If the Blackwater at Davis is over 500 cfs, there should be enough water for the North Fork. There is a visual gauge on the North Fork along the right bank just above a 3-4 foot ledge about 100 yards upstream of the first 40-foot falls. The gauge is broken off at 1.6. A good level for the North Fork is usually in the 1.4-1.6 range. I have run the North Fork as low as 1.1 but it is most fun at 1.3 and above. (See below for more.)
