We ran this river on Sunday (Jan 3, 2016) at 3.3'. There was no precipitation after a rain event earlier in the week and the drop in flows was reflected like so: Thursday the recording said flows were at about 4', Friday at 3.8', Saturday at 3.6', then Sunday morning when we ran the river the recording just said it was 'low'. We checked the physical gauge after our run and had 3.3' which we felt was a low, enjoyable first time flow for the run. It could be more enjoyable higher, but could also be worthwhile a little lower. There were no wood portages.
