As Tony said, the river went black Friday thanks to 2 flash flood events on Upper Mish. The first is a drainage right across from the picnic tables at Stevens, and the second is at the Crystal Palace climbing area (across the river from Tunnel putin). Neither one effected any raft/kayak lines. But did make the rapids feel bigger. Kinda fun running Pineview and surfing at BTO and not seeing any whitecaps, just chocolaty ones.
Water should be over 2ft Saturday as Long Draw is back on and running at ~150cfs, up from ~30cfs.

River just turned black at Camp Falbo and the newly installed Hewlett rain gauge shows almost a tenth of an inch rain in that little storm that just blew through here. So, it may be a tad higher now.
Currently muggy, humid and awesome! Come play

Happy Independence Day, y’all! Cross your fingers all (boaters, anglers may be liking the low flows) that the Riv Commish turns the water back on tomorrow as previously discussed. I sure would like to get the big boat back on the water a couple more times!!
