North Fork Road and Access Site Work
Improvements to several Wild and Scenic River Access sites along the North Fork River as well as brushing and road reconditioning work may cause delays this summer beginning June 17. Be prepared for delays of up to an hour along the North Fork Road (County Road #486) from Red Meadow to the Ford River Access site.
Note: Be aware that river conditions can change rapidly depending on weather and other factors. These condition reports are for reference only, and are not authoritative guides.
Cubic Feed per Second (CFS) and Water Depth are based on USGS Survey Stations near the river segment. Current stream-flow data can be found at NOAA's Advanced Hydrologic Prediction Service.
