according to someone i talked to earlier today, the river is low and glacial. we haven't had rain to speak of lately so all the mud should have settled down by now. i miss the sandy. i haven't been there since the slide.

Here are two good links. The first one, I only scroll down to see their visibility report (the rest of the report is the same "advertisement" every time). The second link is river flow. I last fished the Sandy when it was funning 800cfs, and it was real low and slow. Its closer to 500 cfs now. Despite the low flows, the Guides Forecast today reported clearing water and some fish being caught in the Sandy.

I was just there yesterday. The water below the I-5 bridge is somewhat clear but water above is still glacial and not good visability
