Purpose
Reconnaissance of watershed to identify reaches suitable for sample transects.
Conduct photographic transects on river bars.
Information to be Derived
Grain size of river sediments prior to dam removal.
Summary
Suitable river reaches were identified. Preliminary photographic transects were
conducted. Grain size measurements were recorded for calibration of
photographs.
