Gauge Description:
The online gauge is just above the takeout on Rt. 11.
There are also two RC gauges, one on the north side of the northbound bridge of Rt. 11 and one on the south side of southbound bridge. You can stand between the two bridges and almost see both gauges. On a recent trip, the online gauge read 3.5, the northbound bridge gauge read 9 inches and the southbound bridge gauge read zero. Probably the best suggestion is to average these two gauges.
3.5 online is a good level, you can run it lower but it starts to get scrapy.
