Gauge Information

Gauge Description:

Visual. Check it out at the parking area for Hooker Falls. If you have adequate water in the rapids upstream of the bridge, the run will be good.
Davidson River Gauge is a good gauge to go by, because it is nearby and has a similar drainage area. If you disagree with the min. please post on here.
