| Description: | Note road & mud & silt that will wash out in fall floods. Can't hurt this non-fish stream, but good example of potential erosion. For forestry, erosion probably beneficial if it promotes drainage. |

| Description: | Creek diverted out of road on approach above falls below body of sale area. Flow turned out at center-left. Original choked up channel between diversion channel & road. High water will probably flow down road too. Before diversion, every rain caused serious removal of small materials from road. |
