Easy wading access 500 Cfs to 1,500 Cfs
More difficult wading access 1,500 to 2,000 Cfs
Difficult wading access 2,000 to 2,500 Cfs
Mostly restricted to boat fishing 2,500 and up

The above graph is fairly ambiguous in that a strong wader can work up a particular bank when the river is flowing at 4000 cfs; What the above graph does is describe a generalization!

There are certain stretches of river that lend themselves to better wading by the nature of their design. For instance the upper flatlands and the farmlands provide easier wading as an overall rule just because of size of the rocks evident in the terrain. The river rock in these areas tend to be smaller and uniform and easier to walk on. Also the river braids and channels therefore promoting smaller side channels that are more easily waded. In comparison the upper and lower canyon rocks tend to be larger and less uniform. The river doesn't offer as much in the way of smaller channels and is generally one big river.
