Don't feel like you're missing anything.
It's High Tide on the Rapid right now - they're running above 2000cfs
(2700cfs, iirc) - which makes most of the river virtually unfishable...

My very first session on the Rapid, it was running 2700 or so. Was
feeling a sense of foreboding on my drive there, wondering if the river
would be blown for my whole trip. Turns out I caught 11 fish in the
first few hours in that high water. So you never know!

Yep, no problem. They are catching fish at 4000 cfs. Not many places
to fish, but if you know where, the river is still productive.

It is cold! I slept with four blankets, fleece long johns/sweater,
and a fleece watch cap. Got up at 5 and put a match to the stove.
Cabin was fairly warm by 5:30. Thermos of hot coffee rounded things
out nicely.
