Upper Taos Box visual on flow?

Does anyone have visual flow information on the Upper T Box? The gauge is malfunctioning, according to USGS.

good to go

The gauge is iced up, but the racecourse is about 650cfs which means that the Upper is running about 500-550cfs. We have been getting good snow so the Upper might have some bad ice in it. The racecourse has been clear but the Upper is a bit deeper and shady. Should be good to go but just be heads up. Racecourse gauge below.

Kyle, The snow pack on the front range is ripping and your looking to do some creeking??? Your nuts. At least its still warm in junction and worth finding some boating. mid march, Im looking to go check fossil creek, at least its really warm there. I'll let you know. Now get back to skiing.

Josh

-if You make a run for the upper box in April, let me know. I might go with. Havent run it yet, but both Donnie and I are looking to get it this year.-
