This photo shows Mcguffy Creek, a lower the Scott River tributary, just upstream of the Scott River Road where it joins the Scott. The channel form indicates recent debris torrents, likely on January 1, 1997. Photo contributed by Michael Hentz. 2002.
This photo shows Thompkins Creek at the Scott River. Note new rip rap likely associated with FEMA flood damage projects following January 1997 storm. Photo contributed by Michael Hentz. 2002.
The young, even-aged alders in the riparian zone of Thompkins Creek indicate recent "reset" of the channel by high sediment transport and flow event related to the January 1997 storm. Note that complete shade canopy has been re-established in five years in this narrow reach. Photo contributed by Michael Hentz. 2002.
