The Colorado Water Conservation Board (CWCB 1994) estimates that
approximately 50% of the flow in the Little Snake as measured at the Lily gage
originates in Wyoming. Based on the period of record at the Lily Gage the mean
daily streamflow is approximately 590 cfs (17 m3/s) with the driest year (1977)
averaging only 143 cfs (4 m3/s) and the wettest year (1984) on record averaging
1252 cfs (35.5 m3/s). RCI (1991) presented a peak flow frequency analysis using
the USGS WATSTOR system for the data base through 1988 (Table 2). The flow
duration and flow frequency analysis should be updated for recent years.
