Big bump overnight, thanks to some good, steady rain. Unfortunately the Rustic rain gage is inactive at the moment, but Hewlett Gulch rain gage is posting 0.79″ for the last 24 hours. I’m guessing similar rain up high. I hope you didn’t put away your gear yet!!

Currently 54˚F, cloudy, damp and calm.

This will be my final Rock Report of the Season, just four days after last year’s sign off, and same water level. It has been a great (cool and wet) season on the Poudre this year! If anything spectacular or newsworthy happens I will post it. In the mean time, have a great “off” season and we will see you next year. Thank you RMA for your support this season! Remember, the shop is still open!

Currently 61˚F, overcast and breezy!
