Site 4 Ashley, Kendra, Tyler, Tyler and Haylee
Hello I want to tell you about site 4 and the reasons why it is so fun. First the location is Douglas Creek. Township is 23, Range is 23, and latitude is 47`488.901, longitude is 119`89.996.
Next width: Left bank looking down stream is 0-50” Right bank looking down stream is 0-50”
For vegetation, we have no conifers, moderate deciduous, abundant shrubs and abundant grasses/herbs. The overhead canopy is 0-25%. The shape in cross- section is like U shape. Finally I am going to tell you about artificial structures. In the stream reach we have two poles. Alongside the stream reach we saw bridges and roads.
Last, land uses adjacent to the reach. We saw one recreation area and two places for grazing / livestock access to the stream.
I am going to tell you about the stream banks. Vegetation cover-there was so much of it.
Now I am going to tell you about the Arterial bank protection. There was 0-25%- that is not much.
Next I am going to tell you about the bank stability. There was erosion in some areas and the banks collapsed in some areas. Next I am going to tell you about the riffles. There were 5 and the number of pools was 3. There was a lot of woody debris and a lot of organic debris.
