Steep slope with thick bushes and prickly weeds.
Animal carcass nearby, water level very low, lots of algae on rocks and pools around. Slippery slope.
Lot more vegetation on the way. hard to find the way to go down. The water flow was really high.
"Lowered water levels.
Few Insects between the rocks around sampling spot."
for alkalinity : 10 (Not sure - Test strip yellowish at centre, greenish bluish on the edge)
Slightly reduced water levels observed. Small Sized boulders.
Was not going to finish physical characteristics solo. This site has a particular EHSS, called the cement bridge and depth with current. It isn't the safest solo.
The grass was very slippery going down the path to the site. watch your step on the hills down, it is slick and unstable at places.(ground saturated. probably from the highway, this is low spot)
