Reading the gauges…

Follow Greys River for flow alerts

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.
