We went camping last week (Jun 28 - Jul 1) in Squamish. This is more a report on river levels / visibility .

Squamish - High. Less than 6" visibility. Greenish glacial silt colour.

Mamquam - Low. Less than 6" visibility. Greenish glacial silt colour.

Cheakamus - Low. Less than 6" visibility. Greenish glacial silt colour.

Cheekeye - Trickle. Dirty brown colour.

I didn't fish. I didn't see any fish.

On the way up there and back I didn't stop at Furry Creek to check it out either. Although there were cars parked there, I don't know if it was anglers or beach goers.

Was up there yesterday. Conditions are like late August except water levels are extremely low,  silty and no fish.

They open for pinks on the 6th.
