So happy to have open water for a streamflow measurement! Tailwaters from Fontenelle Dam may be chilly, but all other area sites visited this week required drilling many holes in the ice to access the rivers. Green River blw Fontenelle Dam.

Snow piles on the road made measuring river stage a a bit challenging. Visiting the Snake River at Flagg Ranch streamgage to measure streamflow and stage.

We welcomed an old streamgage back to our network: Wind River above Boysen Reservoir, near Shoshoni. The site, which is cooperatively funded in part by USGS and Wyoming Department of Environmental Quality, currently has stream stage online.
