Chickenwire fence at Box 1 worked well to keep box debris free on upstream side

Second cassette inserted… with difficulty

Recommend marking gate front,back, right side up as it had been installed upside down.

Box 2 had great deal of leaf debris clogging upstream side of box

Both cassettes were removed, inspected and replaced and were fairly clear.

Box 2 ‘s gate is hinged. We had to clear away gravel and rocks that had lodged in front of gate in order to fully open it so cassettes could be removed and reinserted.

Whiffs of sewage at the outlet of the culvert under Monteith, but none at the time at the observation location on the creek

Rock riffle opposite depth meter appears to be functioning well- diverting debris and water flow nicely just upstream of box 1.
