Gauge Information

Gauge Description:

From David Garrity:
Phone number for flow rates from Blackfoot Reservoir - (208) 238-0586. The USGS gauges overlook some diversions and irrigation projects and don't give a good estimate of flow. I've run this as low as 150 cfs, but 250 is probably a more accurate minimum.
