Ran from bridge to near the electric company (the long very new looking driveway with the old Jeep parked on a boulder out front). 543 cfs, pretty shallow but not to scratchy, still fun.

6-14-2013 boated at about 1050 cfs;
several strainers...nearly river wide... but easily avoided.
Fun in the upper reaches.
Any less water and it would lose much of the fun factor.

Dan Bertko reported on Mon 30-Oct-06 :

A group of us paddled the the upper cl3, middle cl2, lower cl3 sections yesterday, Oct 29, 2006.

Here's a data point for the virtual gauge:

Contookcook at Peterborough Net gauge 3.15 and falling

Souhegan old dam painted gauge: 2.0 and falling

The virtual gauge description is fairly accurate. I'd call it medium.

Description update:

There were no strainers in the upper cl3 section.

The large tree strainer mentioned in the cl2 description is no longer there.

There is a fine new beaver dam above the old cl2 strainer location.

A feature, not a hazard.

Arrow shows location of the new gage on the Souhegan. Can be seen from the bridge where NH route 31 cosses just north of the Greenville / Wilton town line.

Ran the Greenville to Rt 101 Bridge section on 7/10/05. The Gage on the Contoocook at Peterboro was running at 2.33 at the time. This level was very scratchy on the Souhegan. It was at the lower limit of what I would consider whitewater fun.
