Gauge Description:

* Reference gauge is Sturgeon at Sidnaw. While the Sturgeon nr Alston gauge is closer, the Sidnaw gauge should more accurately reflect conditions in this reach.
Min/Max are merely guesses, and correlation between rivers is not assured.
Falls River in L'Anse should be at a good flow. Visual at either access point should show a strong, medium to high flow.

Note that since the bedrock slides in this reach are of gritty sandstone, this does not make a good low-flow run. High flows will make this a high speed flush with limited eddies and some very aggressive riverwide holes.
