Gauge Information

Gauge Description:

The AW gauge is located on 75th Steet on the eastern outskirts of Boulder. A more accurate gauge is located in Boulder Canyon and can be found here. If the link doesn't bring up a discharge graph hit "back", and try it again.

Or: When you don't have a computer handy call Watertalk: 303/831-7135 Division 1 Station 9 - Boulder Creek at Orodell.

The lower reaches of Boulder Creek don't run until Barker Reservoir fills up and crests the dam. Expect it to start running in late May or early June, as much as a month after other nearby runs have decent flow.

Low: 150 - 300 cfs
Med: 300 - 500 cfs
High: 500 cfs and up
