The URL for Environment Canada's Upper Crossing on the Liard gauge is:

     http://scitech.pyr.ec.gc.ca/waterweb/formnav.asp?lang=0

When you're there:
Click on the box that says 'Region' and select 'Yukon', then click on
LIARD RIVER AT UPPER CROSSING - [10AA001] - [YT]
then click on the 'Go To Station' button below it.

On the new page you can click between 'real time' or 'historic' under data category in case you'd like to look at trends through out the season or compare years to get averages.

The page comes up with a graph in real time that you can switch under 'Parameter Type' between stage (meters on a gauge) or discharge (cms), or you can compare the two on the same graph using the 'secondary parameter' selection. Below the graph is a set of boxes that allows you to change the dates so you can look at different and longer or shorter periods than the most recent one-week default.

If you switch back to the home page there, you can go to British Columbia and look at the gauge at Lower Crossing (Lower Post). There are also other rivers in BC and the Yukon in the listings.
