Very Low: The river is dry in places.
Low: Water is low but floatable. The river moves slowly and many rocks are exposed.
Moderate: Ample water for floating. The river moves at an average of 2 mph, allowing canoes to float over most rocks.
High: For experienced floaters only. The river flows swiftly and compromising situations may occur. Canoeing experience on swift moving rivers is necessary. All canoeists must possess good river canoeing skills and must be familiar with rescue procedures.
Flood Level: The river flows outside its normal banks. Flood waters move quickly and carry debris. River conditions are hazardous even for highly skilled canoeists.
