Gauge
Gauge Description:
U.S.G.S. gauge at put-in. Usual summer flow is 60-110 cfs.
At 100 cfs, it's a nice training ground for mild whitewater.
At 200 cfs, it approches Class II.
At 550 cfs, it gets pushy and very tricky -- you'd better have a quick and reliable backferry to navigate the many bends and twists in this small stream.
The unusually consistent flow (according to the U.S.G.S. site) stems from outflow from a treatment plant providing much (up to half) the river flow. (Outflow meets clean water standards before entering the river.)
