State	Missouri	Latest	High (1290 cfs)
River	Northfork River	Rating	Observed	Estimated
Updated	2026-04-30 8:00 (26 minutes ago)	Flood - The river is flooding. Obstacles can be treacherous or deadly. The river should be avoided at this stage for casual trips and definitely for the inexperienced. Trips should be attempted only with protective gear and equipment.Flood	(none)	2233
Discharge	1290 cfs (median: 984 cfs)	High - The river is high and potentially dangerous, especially for the young and / or inexperienced. Normal stream obstacles are sometimes difficult to navigate. Extended distances can be attempted, but canoe travel may not be advisable.High	1000	909
Height	3.58 feet	Good - Conditions are ideal for a canoe or kayak. Boats typically will drag on fewer than one-quarter of riffles, if at all, and portages are unnecessary or rare. Normal float lengths can be attempted without a problem.Good	120	628
Trend	Falling (rising over 24 hours)	Low - River is low but can still be floated. Some riffles are okay but most come with significant dragging and might need a portage. Float lengths should be reduced to accommodate low flow, dragging, and portages.Low	(none)	475
USGS	USGS Site ( Duck Duck Go Maps)	Poor - River is too low to float comfortably. Most or all riffles will drag or must be portaged and some obstacles (such as slick shelf rock) cause undue problems. Avoid the river at this stage for casual paddling trips.Poor	(none)	285

	2025-08-09	Twin Bridges	Blue Spring	Total trip distance: 15.3 miles5.8	Good	619	2.76	Excellent	GSF RB SMB Forester, Hayden Lilly, Josh Linscott, Riley Webb, Ethan We were surprised at the put in to find no public access, only a private campground with $20 campsite fee to access the river. We caught 30+ fish, mainly smallmouth and goggle eye, between Twin Bridges and Blue Spring. We hammock camped at Blue Spring on the trail up above the spring. Second day was longer and didn't catch as many fish as the water got colder. There were many rapids sections that were a lot of fun and I believe were class 2. Many spots above Blue Spring required poling through, but most people with kayaks could navigate everything without getting stuck.

Another 4" to 6" of water would have been much better if not ideal. There were several long, still pools on this stretch. Very few other floaters were encountered.
