Gauge

Gauge Description:

* Gauge shown is for the Black River (the next major watershed to the west), whose watershed above the gauge is similar to the Presque above this reach.

Use of a 'related gauge' such as this comes with the understanding that it will not be completely accurate. (The reach may be reported 'runnable' at times when it is not, and vice-versa.)
Visual inspection of the falls sequence by walking a quarter mile down the river right trail from the put-in is recommended.
