I second Lee's comments. I walked the reach on Sunday, May 1, and the principle drop (at the 'Old Dam') appeared to be solid class IV, with minimal or no eddies and at least 4 sticky holes in a row. It will be interesting to come back with less water and see what it looks like.

Also, the gauge correlation to the nearby Jordan River gauge is unclear... however you can get recent readings of the visual gauge from http://twitter.com/#!/GaugeLevel
