This painted gauge is river-right on the concrete holding up the covered bridge (Bull's Bridge), immediately below the normal put-in.

 

looking upstream from the bridge at Stairway.  Mushroom hole starts to become a factor at this level (though the pillow above it still gives to the right pretty hard).  Little Niagra becomes a bit dicey, but still goes until the rocks in the center are totally covered.
