River conditions
Live flows and water temperatures from Colorado Division of Water Resources and U.S. Geological Survey gauges on the Colorado trout rivers we fish. Arrows compare the latest reading with 24 hours earlier; the line shows the last 7 days.

How to use this
Compare each river with its own normal, and watch the trend more than the number. Steady flows usually fish best; a sudden rise below a dam means a release, so wade carefully. New to reading flows? Start with what CFS means for your day.
Gauge data from Colorado DWR and the USGS is provisional and can change. Gauges go offline or freeze in winter, and those show as "No current reading". Always check regulations and closures with Colorado Parks and Wildlife before you go.
