What this means

Low water at Hamilton Creek near Tabernash: the gauge reads 0.75 ft, far below normal for mid-October.

The level has held steady over the past 24 hours. Without real rain upstream, that is unlikely to change quickly. The 30-day range is 0.74 ft – 0.76 ft.

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