gauge at takeout


Description: Most paddlers in the area use these 2 rocks as a visual water gauge. This is what you will see when standing on the takeout bridge looking up river.

Gauge reference:
Minimum = water flowing over some of "gauge rock" (very scrapy),,
Low = water flowing over most/all of "gauge rock",,
Medium to High = when the water level is getting near the top of "baseball rock" (starts getting pushy),,
High = when baseball rock is covered or there is no sign of it,,,, hold on for a rip roaring flush.
