Gauge Information

BLACK RIVER AT NEILLSVILLE, WI
usgs-05381000 1000 - 3000 cfs I(II) 60d18h12m 230 cfs (rc= -0.8 )
Probably too low for real whitewater. Gauge (749 sq.mi. drainage) is at/near take-out, so will accurately reflect flow at that point for this reach.


River Description

Rocky rapids in a wide river. Take-out is figured at the Grand Ave bridge in Neillsville though there are likely better options available.

An anonymous contributor provides:
Mostly flat water with a few shallow class I rapids until about 1 mile north of Neillsville.

I have no personal knowledge of this reach at present. 'Minimum level' assumed based on one trip on the next reach downstream.

If you can provide some details, either use the "Add a Comment" button (on the "Comments" tab page), or volunteer on the StreamTeam for this (and any other) reach.
