WHITE RIVER AT CENTER STREET AT LAKE GENEVA, WI
usgs-055451345	50 - 350 cfs	I(II)	02h33m	~ 86 cfs (running)
	Good flow *IF* spring or immediately after heavy rains. In summer, regulation of lake elevation won't be doubled by additional drainage, thus likely too low.
Gauge (28.7 sq.mi) at outlet of Geneva Lake, subject to regulation at dam. Drainage area at put-in NEARLY DOUBLE that. Gauge likely NOT very accurate for flows
Range Water Level Difficulty Comment 0 - 50 cfs extremely Low-barely Low I(II) Likely too low. However, rains often can push flows in river up without gauge reflecting that due dam-regulated outlet of Geneva Lake. 50 - 100 cfs barely runnable-med runnable I(II) Good flow *IF* spring or immediately after heavy rains. In summer, regulation of lake elevation won't be doubled by additional drainage, thus likely too low. 100 - 150 cfs med runnable-a bit pushy runnable I(II) Normal/usual boatable range. Locally heavy rains may push flows up without gauge reflecting that due to being right at the dam-regulated outlet of Geneva Lake. 150 - 350 cfs a bit pushy runnable-high runnable I(II) Likely unusually high flow. Generally low banks and wide floodplains will reduce high-water effect, but flow will be stronger than usual. 350 -1000 cfs barely High-extremely High II+ RECORD flows. Actual difficulty likely diminished, but danger increased many-fold. (Swift strong current requires strong decisive paddling skills!)
