Gauge Information

Gauge Description:

The 'virtual gauge' cited here should fairly well reflect the 'paddlers gauge' at the Hwy.C bridge (Kosir's). (Units are 'inches', not 'feet' as displayed everywhere herein.)

It is being used on this reach mostly to allow 'reference' for the "Roaring Rapids" reach which follows. (Many boaters continue to reference the 'boater's gauge', and look for ways to make the conversion.)
The conversion used is: USGS gauge (in feet/tenths) minus 4', then times 12 (to convert feet to inches).

While the river may be floatable at lower levels than the stated 'minimum', the rapids are likely to be quite scrapey.

Similarly, this reach is certainly boatable at and above the stated 'maximum', but will be pushy 'big water'.
