Gauge Information

Gauge Description:

Gauge located at NFS Richland Creek Campground bridge. Can be run a little below 3.0 feet but the shoals in the first 2 miles are very shallow. Starts to get real pushy above 5 feet. Time to check out the tributary creeks!

This gauge measures the flow of both Richland and Falling Water. Isolated rain events may make one runnable when the other is dry.

A painted gauge is located at the put-in bridge, measured in inches of airspace. Here is a the correlation assuming general rain event

Inches of airspace (Put-in)	Feet on take-out USGS gauge	Description
26-23	2.4 - 2.6	Real low, plan to lose plastic
22-18	2.6-2.9	Bony low
16-10	3.3-4.0	Optimum
6-0	4.5-5.5	Getting pushy
0 and over the bridge	>5.5	Big Flood Water. Go Creekin'!
