East Davignon Creek

Access to the location could be dangerous, wear snow boots to access the location. Snow hasn't completely melted yet. Big boulders under the now could be a hazard. Right side of the bank is still completely covered in snow. Do not access from the right bank of the creek. Left bank is not covered in snow, but the entrance from the left side is still covered in snow.
Lots of trees are fallen on the bank as well as into the creek. Algae is observed, but it is very low as compared to the same time from last year. Algae is not visible from the surface, but it is visible in underwater pictures. The culvert under the bridge has two passages to allow the water to flow, but left one is blocked with uneven ground surface and with lots of natural debris.

The site is overflowing with hard and loose pack snow. Left bank is accessible from the driveway, over the bank which faces south sun, which melts the snow on the left bank faster. There is a cobble stone and decaying grassy beach visible that can be accessed safely with proper grip shoes. If the water level increases, we should not approach this site as it will make the snow banks on left and right bank vulnerable. Ice on the water surface. Decomposing/Ro odour.
The vegetation could be considered meadow as the grass are left high around the edge. The water colour was better than last monitoring, less turbid looking. The snow is approx .50 metre deep along shore but maybe a foot on concrete basin. This site might need to be monitored twice to three times a week upon spring freshet. This melt might occur next week.

The site is currently inaccessible for water monitoring due to deep snow accumulation, unstable icy surface, and risk if falling through thin ice along the creek's edge. The snow covered terrain makes movement difficult, increasing the likelihood of slips and falls, while the absence of stable ground prevents safe setup for monitoring.

The creek is higher than usual. All algae is gone and clearly riverbed is visible. Lots of foam on the surface.

The water level is increased. No leaves on the tree and lots of natural debris on the water surface. Started seeing a riverbed which was previously covered in the algae. The water level is increased.

Lots of natural debris on the water's surface. Algae is dying.

Fall colours - leaves everywhere—dark algae in the water. Big boulders, descend carefully.

Fall is in - Leaves are everywhere.
Same boulders as you descend. Today was exceptionally windy, with a lot of natural debris as a result.

Observed Birds, Barking dog and a bag of dog waste.

Dying algae and it is dark. The path to the location is slippery.
