Ran it today at 1300 CFS was at probably the upper limit of good flows. Have run it a bunch of times last year at flows ranging from 400-100 CFS. ~800 CFS is when the river gains are honest whitewater character. So best flows are 800-1300 CFS. Lower level is ~ 300-400 CFS.
Also, there is an alternate take out point at the Circus parking spot which avoids the boring flatwater section after the circus world.
