    Comment: Taken from a point just upstream of the bridge where water flows over a log. This is not indicative of the actual flow in the canyon. The photo is presented as an initial datapoint to determine if correlation exists with true flow in the canyon.
    Waterflow: Very High
    Very Low Low Moderate-Low Moderate Moderate-High High Very High Extreme
    0% - 40% 40% - 70% 70% - 90% 90% - 110% 110% - 130% 130% - 160% 160% - 200% >200%

    • Very Low: Water flow should not represent any danger (class B = a2).
    • Low: Not as fun, but should be safe even for beginners (class B/C = a3).
    • Moderate-Low: A bit low, still fun but not very challenging (class C1- = a4-).
    • Moderate: Challenging but not dangerous for intermediate canyoneers (class C1 = a4).
    • Moderate-High: A bit high, quite challenging but not too dangerous (class C1+ = a4+).
    • High: High water, only for experienced swift water canyoneers (class C2 = a5).
    • Very High: Dangerously high water, only for expert swift water canyoneers (class C3 = a6).
    • Extreme: Extremely dangerous high water, may be unsafe even for experts (class C4 = a7).
