The river is sitting at 3,619 cfs today with an unseasonable high of 82 degrees. These are classic summer levels where the sandbars are massive and navigation is about as easy as it gets. It looks like a July postcard out there, but the rental fleet is already tucked away for the winter.
We are officially in the offseason and our gear is packed. We aren't running any trips or shuttles regardless of how much the weather tries to pretend it's still summer. If you are heading out on your own, keep an eye on the Friday forecast where winds are expected to hit 19 mph out of the northwest. That's a brutal headwind for the lower Wisconsin.
Water levels are expected to stay steady around 4,000 cfs through the week. There is some drizzle in the forecast for Thursday and Friday, which will likely bring the temperatures back down to where they belong for October.
