Check the National Weather Service website. There is a river gauge in Glendive. Currently Stage 48.98. What does that mean? Couldn't find it but it must be there somewhere on the site. In our area they give the averages, historic lows and highs etc. It is about 3 feet below action level (getting close to flooding) but might not mean much if there is a dam somewhere downstream. Looks like levels are projected to go up a foot in the next few days. Good luck! water.noaa.gov/wfo/ggw#@=-104.3509688,47.103575,9.5860409&b=topographic&g=obsFcst,1!1!1!1!1!1!1!1!1!1!1!1!1!1!1!0!0!0!0!0,0.5,1!1!1!1!0,0,0&ab=0,0,#D94B4A,1,1,1,#cccccc,1,0,0,#B243B1,1,0,0,#98E09A,1&a=hydrologic,0.35&s=0,0,0.9,0.9&n=false,#72afe9,0.9,0,0.9,0,0.9&p=false,0.75,0,7,0,1,2024,6,11,0&d=0,0,1,1,1,1,1,1,#006EFF,1,#006EFF,1,#006EFF&q=wfo%3AGGW

The river is raging right now. Good luck with your hunt. I'm out of town or I would offer to take you out for a boat trip.

I went to the boat launch by the trestle on Thu morning and it was very high. Went out and explored the back country on Marsh Road. Went to my secret spot and got a few MT agates, but nothing exceptional as far as I can tell. Left a lot of little ones behind.
