Comments:
Longstanding confinement by road and driveway, two culverts in short segment. Slope flattens a bit in this segment from run of ledge grade controls shortly US but is still relatively steep; GIS calc indicates >7 pct. Field observations indicate that slope flattens beneath most US culvert (perched cascade), and there is likely some error in the GIS calculation of slope (stream mapped further from road than observed in the field, placing uplsope reach point at higher elevation in GIS, and segment is more sinuous than VHD shows and actually closer to 900 ft). Still likely that this seg is >5 pct slope overall.
