Gauge Information

Gauge Description:

USGS gage is located downstream of the takeout in Claremont. The Sugar drains Lake Sunapee, a large lake that tends to regulate flow on the river. The Sugar rises and drops more slowly than other rivers in the region. The lake also keeps the Sugar running later in the season, sometimes mid to late May.
