0 - 180 cfs extremely Low-barely Low II-III+(IV) gauge is important or has warning Unless there has been major rain earlier (in day/prior-day), expect too little flow for this creek.
180 - 300 cfs barely runnable-med runnable II-III+(IV) gauge is important or has warning *POSSIBLE* adequate flow *IF* gauge is rising, unlikely if gauge is steady or falling.
300 - 600 cfs med runnable-a bit pushy runnable II-III+(IV) gauge is important or has warning *POSSIBLE* adequate flow *IF* gauge is rising or steady, unlikely if gauge is falling.
600 - 900 cfs a bit pushy runnable-high runnable II-III+(IV) gauge is important or has warning *LIKELY* adequate flow. IF there were continuing rains in prior 12/24/36 hours, runnable flow duration may be extended. If not, move fast!
900 -9999 cfs barely High-extremely High II-III+(IV) gauge is important or has warning Likely unusually high-water in this reach. NEED TO SCOUT AS THOROUGHLY AS POSSIBLE BEFORE PUTTING ON!
