Peshtigo Paddlers' Gage
virtual-7902 10 - 20 inches II-III(IV) 01h06m ~ -2.88 inches (too low)
Virtual paddler's gauge for Peshtigo River should provide reasonable level information. Expect flows on Rat to be ~0.20*Peshtigo.

0 - 8 inches extremely Low-somewhat Low II-III(IV) gauge is important or has warning Almost certainly too low to boat. (We need your input. Add a comment or report about gauge and runnability/difficulty!)
8 - 10 inches somewhat Low-barely Low II-III(IV) gauge is important or has warning Possible ELF (Extreme Low Flow). (Uncertain. We need your input. Add a comment or report about gauge and runnability/difficulty.)
10 - 13 inches barely runnable-med runnable II-III(IV) gauge is important or has warning Likely low-boatable. (Uncertain about lowest boatable levels. Add a comment or report about gauge and runnability/difficulty.)
13 - 16 inches med runnable-a bit pushy runnable II-III(IV) gauge is important or has warning Likely moderate flows.
16 - 20 inches a bit pushy runnable-high runnable II-III(IV) gauge is important or has warning High-boatable flows, suitable for well-experience, skilled whitewater boaters.
20 - 23 inches somewhat High-somewhat High II-III(IV) gauge is important or has warning Unusually high flows. At least one bridge will need to be portaged! (No clearance under.) Highly experienced paddlers only!!!
23 - 50 inches somewhat High-extremely High II-III(IV) gauge is important or has warning Extremely high. Utmost caution! Experts only!
Rat Approximation
virtual-132369 100 - 250 cfs II-III(IV) 01h06m ~ 34.3185 cfs (too low)
gauge class Almost certainly too low to boat. (We need your input. Add a comment or report about gauge and runnability/difficulty!)
Virtual gauge approximates Rat at Partridge lane based on relative drainage (~92 sq.mi.) vs Peshtigo at its gauge. Correlation not assured.
