About this gauge

USGS gauge 02205230 sits on Wolf Creek Tributary and reads everything draining 0.3 square miles of the Upper Ocmulgee basin. Its datum sits 978 feet above sea level NAVD88.

Where this gauge sits in the drainage

No gauged site sits above this one on the mainstem, so this is the first published reading on the river. Downstream the next reading comes from Yellow River near Luxomni, GA at 124 square miles, so what passes this gauge is about 0% of the water measured there. Water passing here goes on to Yellow River near Snellville, GA, Yellow River at GA 124, near Lithonia, GA and Yellow River at Pleasant Hill Road, near Lithonia,ga.
