Notes

A dragonfly larvae was seen crawling on the substrate and a few small minnows were seen swimming around. The brook was measured to be 17 m wide and had no canopy cover. There were some signs of erosion but overall the banks appeared to be stable. The riparian area is dominated by grasses and Speckled alder. There was part of an old beaver dam noted by the outflow of Fairweather Brook.
