Range Water Level Difficulty Comment -1262 - 0 cfs extremely Low-somewhat Low II-III(IV) Likely **minimal flow** in bypassed reach (flow is within capacity of penstock/powerplant). 0 - 240 cfs somewhat Low-barely Low II(III) Possibly E.L.F. (Extreme Low Flow) runs of 'creeky' quarter-mile run below dam. 240 - 700 cfs barely runnable-med runnable III-IV Likely adequate flow for 'creeky' quarter-mile immediately below the dam. Possibly **marginal flow** for full (class II) run. 700 -1500 cfs med runnable-a bit pushy runnable II-III(V) Likely too high for 'creeky' section immediately below dam. Likely **low-to-moderate level** for full (class II) run. 1500 -2000 cfs med runnable-a bit pushy runnable II-III(V+) Perhaps 'ideal' playable flows for main reach. 2000 -3500 cfs a bit pushy runnable-high runnable II-III+(V+) Likely big and pushy for intermediates; possibly great play for advanced playboaters. 3500 -5000 cfs barely High-extremely High II-III+(V+) Unusually high. Well-experienced boaters may enjoy BIG WATER run. 5000 -99999 cfs somewhat High-extremely High II-III(V+) Extremely high flows. Highly-experienced boaters may enjoy BIG WATER run.
