Comments

Some step-pool formation likely due to confinement, as bulk of slope (0.9 pct by GIS) is accounted at ledge grade controls at Bobbinshop; gravel D50 indicative of some fining. Much failed riprap puts concentration of large stones along margins of channel. Little remains of former mill dam in segment.
