Default N.Ram levels?

Has anyone been down to the north ram in the last week? Levels look good but I'm wondering if the flow rate might be a little too fast for fishing.
Also how are the roads(FTR and NF)?
I'm planning a trip that way middle of the week.

I see no major rain in the forecast. You should be good by then. Everything in that area appears to be headed for normal flows again. Fingers crossed.

Just got back. Levels were good but the flow rate was a little high. Only managed to spots where I could cross.
The flood in may really did a number on the river along the north fork road.
Most of my honey holes were gone and a lot if debris piled up along the shore

Fished the North Ram for a couple days this week. Definitely changed some of my favourite holes. The debris in some places is unreal, that water must have been roaring to up root some of the trees I seen in the river. Fishing was brutally slow.

Fished it yesterday. It is still quite high and fast for this time of year. Quite dirty lower down but cleans up the further upstream you go.
