Comments

Large deposits of woody debris were found along the channel margins and on top of the banks, moderate wood was present in the channel. Pool density was low, however several large deep pools with adjacent woody cover were observed. The widened channel had reduced bank canopy, but buffers and banks were natural and well vegetated.
