7.5 Channel Adjustment Processes Narrative  
  Extreme incision, minor widening with some localized bank erosion. Minor aggradation as seen through some side bars. Stream is still incising as indicated by head cuts present. Planform change within area that is windrowed. Berm along left bank near ponds. Stream type departure from C to G due to windrowing and incision. Head cut on upstream end may have worked its way through here to cause incision. Straightening was noted above windrowed section. There is not significant evidence of straightening and may be just a result of the head cut migrating upstream.
