    Anyone been out on the river in last couple of days? How’s the water clarity and flow? Was up pretty good, and muddy, last weekend. Just curious if it’s improved any.

    Beginning of last week the Secci tube read 29″, normally it’s about 36″ this time of year. (taken at the green Nav can across form the Last Resort.

    Flow is reported today a 42k cfp at the dam and is “normally” about 7 to 15k this time of year.

    Hope that helps.

    Pool 2 on the south end has only a few inches of clarity and the current is ripping. Lotta wood coming downriver, too.

    Not as scientific as BK but it’s high, fast and dirty.

    I was there Friday. The gates of the dam are out of the water about 8 feet. A guy shot through in a duck boat. No need to go through the lock I guess.
