Profile

Streamflow elevation profile

Each bubble is one gauge along the river, plotted by current streamflow (x-axis) vs elevation (y-axis), sized by gauge stage. Reading top-to-bottom traces the river from headwaters down to its mouth -- you can see flow accumulate as elevation drops.

About this river

Trout Creek

Trout Creek is a stream located in Oregon, USA, that runs for approximately 33 miles from its source near the city of Sisters until it flows into Lake Billy Chinook. The creek is named after the trout population that inhabits its waters, which attract many anglers. In the past, logging activities and wildfires in the area have affected the water quality of the creek. The hydrology of Trout Creek is characterized by intermittent flows that depend on seasonality and precipitation. Several reservoirs and dams have been built along the creek to regulate its flow and provide irrigation water for agricultural purposes. The most notable of them is Round Butte Dam, located at the mouth of the creek, which also serves as a hydroelectric power plant. Recreational activities such as fishing, swimming, and camping are popular in the area.

Track the Trout Creek in the Snoflo app

Set per-gauge push alerts (e.g. "alert me when flow at the Russian R Nr Healdsburg crosses 5,000 cfs"), and Snoflo's iOS app pushes the moment USGS reports the crossing.

FAQ

About the Trout Creek

Where does the data for the Trout Creek come from?

Streamflow and gauge stage data are sourced from the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) National Water Information System. The aggregate flow shown at the top of the page is computed by Snoflo as the sum of all monitored gauges along the river.

How is "percent of normal" calculated?

Today's aggregate streamflow is compared to the historical average aggregate streamflow on this calendar day across the river's full record. 100% means right on average; values above 100% indicate above-normal flow (wet year); values below indicate below-normal (dry year or drought).

Why are some gauges showing very different flows?

Gauges along a river measure flow at different points: headwater gauges read what's coming off the snowpack or mountain runoff; downstream gauges integrate everything upstream, including tributary inputs. Wide spreads usually mean a tributary is contributing significantly between gauges.

What's the elevation profile chart showing?

Each bubble is one gauge along the river, plotted by streamflow (x-axis) and elevation (y-axis), sized by gauge stage. Reading top-down traces the river from headwaters to mouth -- you can see flow build as elevation drops.

Can I get alerts when a specific gauge crosses a threshold?

Yes -- alerts are managed in the Snoflo iOS app on a per-gauge basis. Open any individual streamgauge from the table above and favorite it to set a discharge threshold.
