Just R2’d lower Stonelick. Absolutely not at 2000 CFS as the gauge is currently showing. Lots of rain past couple of days means the East Fork dam folks are letting water out (where the gauge is), but Stonelick drains out in less than 24 hours after big rains, so it’s not suddenly going to magically get good again. The gauge at East Fork lake has literally nothing to do with Stonelick. Flow today was probably on the order of 800 CFS or less. There was wood down in numerous spots, but at this level, it’s easy to see and prepare for. Had to carry twice. Otherwise, it was a fun lower-water run. If you see exposed rock bar at the Rt 50 bridge, it’s probably too low or will be soon.
