| Gauge Reading | 5 ft at SUGAR RIVER AT WEST CLAREMONT, NH |
| Flow | High Flow |
Put-on at roughly 5ft today for two runs. It was fun but definitely no longer a class II/III at this level. Our group's assessment was at least a III+/IV-, if not class IV. Especially the very end of the run: the last quarter-mile or so before the bridge. There were a few strainers, but none were river wide and they were all easily/seen avoided (at least at this level.)
There do appear to be runnable sections above the two ponds, but we chose to do the shorter laps instead.
We had wanted to extend the run, but were unsure of any dams/takeouts further downstream.
