Gauge Description:

Passage is reportedly getting its own on-line gauge soon, reporting from Buckton at the Rt. 55 bridge. Once the gauge starts reporting it will be linked here. The streamkeeper is guessing around 150 cfs on the gauge will be about boating zero.

The gauge above is a a correlating gauge and should be viewed as such. The Gooney is one watershed to the east of the Passage watershed. The minimum of 2.3 is based on limited observations and may need adjustment later.

There is a painted gauge at the Route 55 bridge in Waterlick on the upstream river left side. A level of 1-3 feet makes for a good run. Six inches is scapey, and it can be run down to zero.

Look at the Camp Roosevelt and Detrick rain gauges.
