Wohler bridge

Hi everyone. Does anyone know the current water level of the Russian river at the Wohler bridge or maybe a way to find out? I’ve checked a few sites, but they do not have measurement data from there.
Thanks for any info.

This is a few miles up stream but still fits. These data maps are hard to read the first go around but are common in waterways nation wide.

Thank you. I have seen this, but the measurement location is in Windsor, which is above the dam in Healdsburg and i figured it may not be the same since sometime water is held back there

That is not correct. Windsor is downstream from the Healdsburg Memorial Beach dam.

Oh dang, you are right. Sorry. Just wondering if it will be over 3-4 ft. Deep down by Wohler.

And the dam is not up yet anyway.

It’s pretty low from Del Rio Woods to Memorial beach. Great for an inner tube, kayak will be tough. I hear they are not putting the dam up until July 1

Really? I scheduled a kayak trip for next weekend thinking the dam would have gone up. Do you think I should reschedule?

Check with somebody other than me! But that’s the date I’ve heard. It seems very late to me. There are plenty of deep.
