Comments:
Very manipulated stream bed by campground. Landowner says it flooded in 1997-98 and he dozed it/cleaned it out, particularly noting removal of debris jams just downstream of the campground. Much of the larger material from the stream bed appears to be stockpiled in the area of the right bank berm downstream of the Sand Hill Rd. bridge. The campground owner keeps a dozer onsite and indications are that he may “clean out” the stream near the campground on a somewhat regular basis, though he did not confirm this.
