The gauge range for too high and too low is inaccurate. I ran it @ 9.75 feet and it was VERY
high... So I would imagine that anything from 5.5 and above would be plenty FYI. And road access
into The St. Helens Tree Farm (Weyhauser) is locked so you can only drive to 7.5 miles above the
put-in bridge.

It is worth noting that the people living on this river have had problems with the public in the
past, and they are very suspicious of people. As a result, you will see a lot of accesses with
"keep out" signs, and you may even get a visit from a local if they see you scouting a
potential takeout. However, the people in the area don't seem to have any problems with boaters -
we found them to be very friendly when they found out we were not fishermen.
