| Gauge Reading | 9.3 ft at QUINAPOXET RIVER AT CANADA MILLS NEAR HOLDEN, MA |
| Flow | Medium Flow |
Ran for the first time today with Quin frequenters Patrick Robbins and Michael Orsini.
At 9.3' it was very fun - lots of surfs and eddies to catch. Overall I'd rate it an easy class III perhaps, with fairly consistent class I-II throughout and a couple III sections.
There are two riverwide strainers in low current sections, and plenty more branches and trees partially blocking the river at the moment. Nothing that isn't avoidable or portageable safely.
