Second hand-report from the upper canyon, from earlier today:
Joe Wright: Medium, with at least two new pieces of wood to avoid along the way. No portaging required, but definitely a heads up for new wood.
Spencer Heights: Medium-high and clean
Currently 68.8Ff, sunny with a slight breeze. Absolutely beautiful Day! Expect a high of 79F with a 10% chance for rain.
Lower N Fork still up at 922 cfs at Livermore as of 0800.
Currently 45.6F, cloudy and calm. WX.com expects a warmer day reaching the 60’s with a good chance for scattered showers. Expect better Wx tomorrow.
Don’t know if I believe it, but Colorado River Flows is claiming 1040 cfs for the Lower North Fork at Livermore!
Have fun.

Little South Fork: Juicin (HIGH)!
Our group of 8 ran the Little South Fork yesterday. We faced 2 mandatory strainer portages in the upper section of the run, and a mostly clear channel through the main drop. Due to visible wood and some uncertainty about possibly more wood under the water surface, we all opted for the portage route on the main drop. At yesterday’s flow the run is busy and committing read-and-run class IV/IV+, with a class V’ish spike for the main drop. As always, heads up for new wood and be prepared for a wilderness adventure!
