Gasconade River (Missouri), Hazelgreen (06928000)

State	Missouri	Latest	High (1140 cfs)
River	Gasconade River	Rating	Observed	Estimated
Updated	2026-04-17 6:15 (1 hour 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)	4809
Discharge	1140 cfs (median: 1020 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	943
Height	2.97 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	200	494
Trend	Rising (falling 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	100	226
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)	56

	2022-04-23	Buzzard Bluff	Wilbur Allen	Total trip distance: 7.2 miles7.2	High	3350	5.78	Fair	GSF LSF RB Barton, Adam Barton, Scott Windy conditions (gusts over 40 mph) and the river being high made fishing conditions tough all day long. The hardest part was trying to keep the kayaks in place to make the proper casts. All the fish caught were in areas out of the wind and in slow current. Our target was smallmouth, but maybe the spawn is going on right now. Water temp was 64 degrees. There are a few tricky riffles through this section at this water level. A tree had recently fallen across near the take out and resulted in a minor portage. Most notably though, we saw hundreds of turtles along the way. One softshell turtle I saw had to be about the size of a manhole cover! Two bald eagles nest were spotted in large sycamores closed to Manes and we could see the males searching for additional food overhead.

The first half of the trip consisted of some very large, slow pools punctuated with some good runs. The latter part of this trip was faster. After our lunch stop, we did find the perfect shady spot for a "rivercado" snack. USGS Gauge Data: Hazelgreen (06928000) Discharge: 2840 Height: 5.44 Source: Edmond

There were no obstacles in this short distance and canoe travel was fine. The level was high due to the massive rainfall event over the area last week (Wed night and Thu). I believe a long float just on the Gasconade could have been attempted at this level. USGS Gauge Data: Hazelgreen (06928000) Discharge: 1090 Height: 3.16 Source: Edmond

	2018-09-15	Cave Lodge	Ruby's Landing	Total trip distance: 5.1 miles5.1	Good	443	1.88	Poor	SMB Edmond, Brian The Gasconade was falling from a recent moderate flooding event. The water was still pretty murky. The flow was moderate with many slow, still pools. The riffles were fine but rare. This part of the river was nice enough but not very scenic. I rode an old prisoner bus from Ruby's Landing to the put-in just upstream of Schlict Spring. USGS Gauge Data: Hazelgreen (06928000) Discharge: 443 Height: 1.88 Source: Edmond
