Comments:
Two LB mass failures where channel impinges on high valley wall of unconsolidated materials. One LB small gully has developed along the corn field (also indexed as a stormwater input). One stream ford (old or infrequently used). Armoring noted along LB is often a pile of field stone dumped over the top of the LB from the corn field. Occasional channel-spanning bedrock provides vertical grade control in the downstream half of the segment. Bedrock offers lateral grade control along the RB in the downstream end of the segment.
