The gauge is true, I live within an hour of clear creek its extremely hot and dry (today is first rain in a few weeks). In the summer it hardly ever runs, there was one or two days in July that the bsf was runnable, clr creek only rose to 170'ish but was down after a day. That guage has been reading single digits most of the summer.

We've got great levels up here!
Forcast is for 2,200cfs this weekend, but they normally run a couple of hundred cfs higher than the forcast. That'll be a good level for the wave at Weldon.

Here's what it looks like at 2,410cfs:

Yesterday afternoon we caught a decent spike. They took it from 2,600cfs to 13,900
Big fun for a couple of hours while it's coming up

We can run it tonight. I'd like to have a minimum of 3 boats. Everyone MUST be comfortable running Weldon in the dark. If anyone is not comfortable with this, they're not ready to run the river at night. Swimmers are not invited. I'm not trying to exclude anyone, but recovering swimmers & their stuff in the dark is no fun. Drop a carbon paddle & you'll never find it.
I'm on the way to Weldon now. We'll talk there.
