Notes

THE TERRAIN IS VERY UNSAFE. THIS SITE CAN NOT BE ACCESSED WITHOUT PROPER GUIDANCE. The terrain is snow covered with approx., 1 meter of snowpack. The left and right banks snow escarpments are hard packed, and unstable. The water is flowing under left bank and has created an overflow approx. a meter wide. The area is unsafe for anyone to enter unless you are trained in snow and ice readiness, survival, ad safety awareness and working near water in winter. ONLY GO WITH KIKI. She is certified. It is safe for Kiki, her mother was used as a emergency contact. She text upon arrival to each site and text a thumbs up when she left.
Storm water is a source of pollution in the immediate surroundings. Water Colour: Orange.
There was no birds or wildlife seen. No wildlife tracks. There was approx. 1 meter of snow pack at the site. The tree that was hanging in the river last season has fallen and is in the creek. It could become a problem at the culvert if a fast melt occurs. This should be monitored.
