Notes

The beaver dam in front of the culvert has stippoed flow completely from moving forward. There is a sewage smell from the decomposition that is occuring at the culvert. The oily sheen is from bacteria film. The water level is high because of the dam. Use the path that has been cut down and watch your step walking on the uneven ground.
