Comments:
Lots of fresh downed trees from eroding bank and planform adjustments (2 flood chutes and island). Lots of LWD in reach. M0-A is a low gradient segment as compared to M03-B and Sandgate Brook, so below their confluence there was some sediment deposition as indicated by several diagnoal riffles and mid point/bars and islands.
