Abstract / Description
Little debris from this drain entered the main channel, but was deposited upon arrival at wide flat area above forks. Small gash in center of channel was cut by free water after passage of mudflow. Right fork streambed about 15 feet across with a depth of about 3 feet. The debris flow from this fork did not enter the main channel but stopped short about 150 feet after hitting divided channel mud, silt, small gravelly rocks, shrubs, etc.
