Comments:
Poor riffle-pool formation and extensive scour pools. Used +/- 2 width/depth factor to class as C-type stream as bed degradation contributes to low width/depth ratio but grade control is likely limiting further degradation, and sinuosity is low for E-type stream. Cross section at one of wider points of valley due to lack of good riffles at which to place it; multiple terraces at cross section indicate successive floodplain abandonment. Cross section location DS of bridge likely influences substrate size in pebble count;overall segment borders on sand substrate (C5).
