  <p style=”text-align: left;”>Hi All, I’m brand new to MO! AW is reporting St F as running! Do you think this is right? If so, anyone boating this Columbus Day weekend? I would love to get on some whitewater! I am a hack of a IV boater from WV. I hope it’s true that it’s running! I’ve a big truck for the shuttle! – Kevin</p>

  Hey Kevin,
  
  Welcome to MO! Unfortunately the Saint has only ran two or three times this summer and it’s almost 2ft below where it needs to be to kayak it. Keep an eye on the link below. It has to be 3ft or higher on that gauge. The AW site doesn’t work anymore the St. Francis.

  Does anyone ever use this site to judge levels?

  It’s downstream at E bridge. I just wonder if it is a good correlation.

  The Roselle gage still works. It just doesn’t connect to the USGS network any more. They dropped it because of (apparently) a spat with the Army Corp of Engineers. But you can still find the river level at the ACE Roselle gage site:
  
  http://rivergages.mvr.usace.army.mil/WaterControl/shefgraph-wotem2.cfm?sid=CE62308E&d=7&dt=S
  
  Our webmasters re-hooked data from the ACE site to the River level metric at the top of the page. But so far they haven’t updated the gage links on the MWA Resource page, which still points to USGS: https://missouriwhitewater.org/paddling-info/
  
  The American Whitewater link still points to the USGS link too. If anyone has any sway with them, perhaps their people could talk to our people & get the correct data feed.
  
  However you measure it though, there ain’t no water now! But someday…
