| Gauge Reading | 9.8 ft at QUINAPOXET RIVER AT CANADA MILLS NEAR HOLDEN, MA |
| Flow | High Runnable |
I ran the Quinn after a week of rain. Flow was 9.8-10 feet. Conditions were Class II with a longer Class III rapid in the second half of the trip starting with the abrupt dropoff under the I-190 overpass. The Quinn was super fun, but... there are now multiple strainers throughout the trip (at least 5) including a full river wide strainer just above the I-190 overpass. This one required portaging. The others were not complete riverwide and could be skirted.
