What this means

Sullivan Creek near Canyon is running far below normal at 0.03 m. That reading is from Oct 11, 2026, 12:00 PM MDT, so the gauge may be offline or reporting late.

The median for mid-October is 0.04 m, based on 14 years of readings, so the water level is 0.01 m below typical.

It has barely moved over the past 24 hours. Without real rain upstream, that is unlikely to change quickly. In the last month it has stayed between 0.03 m and 0.04 m.

Fall is often low-water season on rivers, and it usually takes a few days of steady rain to change that.
