Whitewater Forum : New gauge on the Cascade River

Professor Paddle · Washington, Oregon and vicinity

Author: Fun EliSubject: New gauge on the Cascade RiverPosted: 04 Dec 2015 at 10:29pmI might try doing the spray paint thing and see how it goes. The concrete looks scoured after the last flood, so I doubt spray pain will last in that location. I probably just need to find a different spot for the gauge. Thanks for the tips. I will look around some more and see what I can come up with.

The Little House Latteral didn't have...
