Watch out Beaver is hanging out right in the sampling area, and at the front of the parking spot. The sample site is not exactly the same, was across the creek. A very busy Beaver has stake his claim.

Watch footing lots of woody debris and uneven ground from where a tractor of sorts, ripped up the ground (big holes) and levelled the shrubs (riparian and beyond, willow daggers pointed up). The mud is slippery, there is a small running ditch that joins the creek now, and it has to be crossed (rubber boots recommended). There is a beaver presence at the back of the creek where it turns in.

There was a sewage smell this visit very mild but when wind stopped could smell. Could be coming from culvert( decomposition) could not be sure. Sedges and grass was in sample area turning green that are half submerged in water. 3 metres above sample site is a buildup of woody debris. There is zero canopy cover with meadow on left and right bank. Only remains of cut down willow and grey alder.
