	(Flow exceeds 1320 cfs 50% of time, 3420 10% of time). We assume this may be optimum flow? PLEASE ADD COMMENT(S) if you have experience at these levels!
Drainage at put-in is ~5% less than at gauge. Three dams intervene which could also cause variance between gauge reading and actual flow in this section.
Range Water Level Difficulty Comment 0 - 200 cfs extremely Low-somewhat Low II (Near) Record low flows! Almost certainly too low for any good whitewater. (Any gradient is likely to be grungy!) 200 - 680 cfs somewhat Low-barely Low II Unusually low (90% of time, flow exceeds 680 cfs), thus we assume this may be below recommended. PLEASE ADD COMMENT(S) if you have experience at this level! 680 -1320 cfs barely runnable-med runnable II (Flow exceeds 680 cfs 90% of time and 1320 cfs 50% of time). We assume this may be low/paddleable? PLEASE ADD COMMENT(S) if you have experience at this level 1320 -3420 cfs med runnable-a bit pushy runnable II (Flow exceeds 1320 cfs 50% of time, 3420 10% of time). We assume this may be optimum flow? PLEASE ADD COMMENT(S) if you have experience at these levels! 3420 -5000 cfs a bit pushy runnable-high runnable II Flow exceeds 3420 cfs 10% of time, thus this is high flow. PLEASE ADD COMMENT(S) if you have experience at this level! Is it washed out? Do things build? 5000 -10000 cfs somewhat High-somewhat High II VERY HIGH WATER. PLEASE ADD COMMENT(S) if you have experience at this level! Is it washed out? Do things build? Any special hazards? 10000 -99999 cfs somewhat High-extremely High II EXTREME FLOWS.
