Gauge Description:

The minimum level, suggested by Steve Ettinger, should be viewed as a rough guide only. Steve also notes that you need less water when Liberty Lake is full.

Usually needs several days of hard rain in summer and fall. Beware, it's a flashy river. The gauge has risen as much as 4' in less than an hour...
