Notes
The water seemed low for such a high rainfall event. Potentially water is still moving through the system. The conductivity seemed high- might want to check the water depth for comparison. Conductivity may have increased due to evaporation. There was snake mortality by the sample site looked like a natural occurrence, possibly a bird. Vegetation overgrown, can not see the path so watch footing. The rip rap by sampling site is slippery and there is wood debris present from beaver action in May. Watch your step.
