Site Description:
-
There were light patches of algae
present in the water with cobble to boulder sized rocks in the water. There is
not much vegetation present at the site and the width of the river is around
6.6m and a depth of about 1/3m. The banks of the river cut down steeply. We
believe that the South side of the bank is fortified because the North side is eroding.
There is cotton wood like trees and the cliffside North to us is made up of Columbia
River Basalt. The area from which we collected water is not heavily impacted.
