Flows are a good wadable level, get after it!  This is a beautiful river in the Colorado high country and offers some fantastic fall fishing.

Dry/droppers are your go-to friend.  Watch for hatches of Mayflies and Caddis.  The occasional terrestrial/chubby dry/dropper rig could never hurt  Fish a heavy nymph rig in the deepest sections.
