Average Gradient:.% Pieces LWD per m: 6. Wood Volume (m³) per m: 5.5 Percent pools: 35% Complex pools (LWD pieces>=3): 2 Pools >=m deep: Percent substrate (avg): Silt / organics Sand Gravel Cobble Boulder Bedrock All units Pool units Fast water units SURVEY COMMENTS: This is a pre-treatment survey. The site is scheduled for log restoration treatment by helicopter in 24. This is a low gradient site with abundant side-channel habitat. Habitat is primarily comprised of riffles and pools with abundant sand, gravel, and cobble.
