Summary Information
Fish Passability 0
Erosion is an area of concern for this site.
erosion pretty badly. Fish can't get through log easily. Servere erosion. Perched fast velocity at both ends
A future visit to this site is recommended. YES. Inlet in very poor condition, log blocking 90% of the inlet
