Gauge Information
River Description
Steve McLuckie shared:
Ran this on 5/22/11 at 1990 CFS on the Godeffroy gauge, which is
probably the gauge to use for this section. Bridgeville was 985, but 3
weeks ago Goddefroy was only 1500 when Bridgeville was 990. The minimum is probably around 1200
or so at Godeffroy, but I'd want at least 1500. At the level we had this was mostly class 2, but
some of the wave trains were fairly big and pushy. At higher levels this is probably a solid
class 3 that's a lot of fun. While not as remote as the gorge above, this is a
pretty stretch and we saw a bald eagle. Half of it is away from the road, and the road doesn't
usually intrude too much. There's a very easy takeout immediately upstream of the Route 209
bridge.
