Big Sulphur Creek looking downstream (north) off Geysers Road. Photo taken by Patrick Higgins on July 15, 2003.
This closeup of Big Sulphur Creek was taken at the same location as Picture #1. Bed materials are large, which is not surprising given the gradient and confinement of the creek in this reach. Photo taken by Patrick Higgins on July 15, 2003.
Looking upstream on Big Sulphur Creek just upstream of Squaw Creek. The gorge here is naturally open to warming. Photo taken by Patrick Higgins on July 15, 2003.
This photo downstream from the same location as Picture #3 on Big Sulphur Creek with algae covering the stream bed. Water temperature in Big Sulphur Creek is naturally elevated and the geothermal activity may cause excess minerals or metals that are also adverse to salmonid production. Photo taken by Patrick Higgins on July 15, 2003.
Looking downstream on Big Sulphur Creek from the same location as Pictures #3 and #4 with Squaw Creek entering from the right. Photo taken by Patrick Higgins on July 15, 2003.
