Notes

The site is unsafe to approach the tradditional way from the road leading from fourth line. The access must be taken from parking down the road from the site and walking to right bank and accessing across the snow. Water Colour: Orange.
The snowpack on right bank was over 1 metre high still. There is a island that is made of sand that was not there last year. There was more cobble and gravle but the substrate in one area has evolved to sand through potentially use of road sands.
