Station and Location Information: ► Latitude: 46.898722° North (WGS1984) ► Longitude: -121.618944° West (WGS1984) ► UTM Northing: 5194835.3 meters (NAD 1983 Zone 10N) ► UTM Easting: 605193.1 meters (NAD 1983 Zone 10N) ► Elevation: 3731.299 feet (1137.3 meters) ► Recording Interval: 15 minutes Station Notes: ► Water Pressure, Temperature and Conductivity meter replaced on 07/12/2019. First Data point is 10:45 PDT (17:45 GMT) on 07/12/2019. Note that conductivity measurements prior to this point are suspect. ► Data acquired by all stations during the Government Shutdown from December 22, 2018 to January 26, 2018 may not be correct and should be considered provisional data until later analyzed by staff. ► Turbidity and Dissolved Oxygen sensor removed for the winter season, effective 10/15/2019 10:45:00 PDT. Estimated to be restored in spring/summer 2020. ► This station is affected by freezing water/ice in stream. Unusually high stage increases during freezing weather are due to ice buildup on pressure transducer and not true stage increases. ► The rain gage is unheated and will not accurately record in periods of ice or snow fall. ► This site records river stage only (not discharge). ► This station may experience problems during and after storm events due to extreme sediment load. Please use the gage height and discharge data with caution during these periods. Contact Information: This station is maintained by: Mount Rainier National Park, Geology and Imminent Threats Group. Funding for the construction and maintenance of this stream gage was provided by the following organizations:
