Animas River is a freestone river in Colorado. Our destination hub Durango & the San Juan is 1 mi away in a straight line and lists it among its waters.
Pick one of its USGS gauges and hear from us when the flow moves into or out of its usual range for the date, or crosses a flow you set. We check the public USGS reading every 2 hours and email only when it crosses, at most once every 6 hours. Flow alone is not a fishing forecast or a safety call.
Signed in: one step. Otherwise we email a confirmation link first. Every alert has one-click links to stop it.
Start from the agency's public access map. Nothing on this page grants or implies access: check the agency map, posted signs and landowner permission before you fish.

Normal for Nov 5: 220–366 ft³/s (middle half of 115 years of record). Now: 2,890 ft³/s, highest for this date on record.
Highest for this date on record for this date. 2,890 ft³/s is above the highest daily mean recorded on this date of daily mean flow for Nov 5 at this gauge over 115 years of record: 10th 187, 25th 220, median 267, 75th 366, 90th 458 ft³/s.
Daily means on record for Nov 5: lowest 141 ft³/s, highest 1,080 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).
Falling over 24 hours: discharge down 21.7%, from 3,690 to 2,890 ft³/s. 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.
Below NWS action stage. The National Weather Service reports this gauge below its action stage. That is not a statement that wading is safe.
NWS observed 4.86 ft stage, 2,890 ft³/s at Nov 5, 2:30 PM MST (NWS gauge DRGC2; its stage datum can differ from the USGS gauge height).
NWS river forecast forecast issued Nov 5, 9:11 AM MST. Highest point: 5.04 ft, 3,180 ft³/s on Nov 5, 6:00 AM MST (Below NWS action stage).

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.
This gauge is on our page for Animas River, but no agency page we read lists its species.
Below NWS action stage. The National Weather Service reports this gauge below its action stage. That is not a statement that wading is safe.
Flood categories: action stage, minor, moderate and major flooding (National Weather Service)Flow above the record for this date. Higher than any daily mean USGS has recorded on this date at this gauge. Expect much higher, faster water than usual for the season.
