A 'close-up' shot of Fonferek Falls, with the Bower USGS gauge at 10.5'. (This is the actual Bower Creek reading, by visual inspection of stage stick at the bridge. This gauge is not currently reported online, and is not the gauge from Baird Creek which is used as a reference gauge on this river listing.)

I had no interest in running this falls, and (at this 10.5' level) felt that it would have been near crazy to run the initial dells sequence, since there was wood in the Blind Left Bend just a short ways downstream.
