Map of USGS gauge 09064600 and the river around it
Where EAGLE RIVER NEAR MINTURN, CO sits, with 3 other gauges on the same river and our water's map point.
No current water-temperature reading at this gauge, so no temperature guidance is given. Take a stream thermometer: the trout lines Colorado Parks and Wildlife uses are 71°F.
Normal for Nov 5: 33–46 ft³/s (middle half of 37 years of record). Now: 31.7 ft³/s, below normal.
Below normal for this date. 31.7 ft³/s is between the 10th and 25th percentiles of daily mean flow for Nov 5 at this gauge over 37 years of record (1990–2026): 10th 27, 25th 33, median 39, 75th 46, 90th 50 ft³/s.
Daily means on record for Nov 5: lowest 21.6 ft³/s, highest 63.7 ft³/s.
Classes as USGS labels them (hyswap: flow categories (WDFN_stats schema) (U.S. Geological Survey) ); percentiles from the USGS daily statistics (U.S. Geological Survey) (approved daily means; the reading is provisional and instantaneous).
Steady over 24 hours (+0% discharge). Rising or falling means a change of more than 10% in discharge (or 0.2 ft of gauge height) over 24 hours; our rule of thumb, not a USGS class.

Turn Around Don't Drown. “A mere 6 inches of fast-moving flood water can knock over an adult.” No flow number makes a crossing safe; if in doubt, stay out.
Turn Around Don't Drown (National Weather Service)Specific conductance 168 µS/cm at Nov 1, 1:00 AM MDT; 7-day range 162–186 µS/cm; more than a day old
Dissolved ions: Specific conductance rises with the ions dissolved in the water. No fishing threshold is published for it; compare with this gauge's own recent readings.
Conductivity (Electrical Conductance) and Water (U.S. Geological Survey)Guidance from the readings above and the published thresholds named with each line; not a fishing forecast, a safety guarantee or a statement about access. Local rules and closures come first.
NWS observation not current. NWS has no current observation at this gauge, so no flood category is shown.
NWS has not set flood categories for this gauge.
Forecasts are issued routinely year-round.
