Big Hungry confluence
| Description: |
This is Mike Nail's photo of the confluence with Big Hungry Creek, the Green's major tributary. The photo was taken from a kayak in the middle of the Green side, with Big Hungry coming in from the left and "delivering the brown". Following overnight rains (don't know how much, the AFWS Dana gauge was broken), Big Hungry was feeding in most of the sediment in this situation. Depending where the rains fall in the watershed, however, and what kind of crappy-ass development is going on upstream in any given month, the "line" can be reversed, with Big Hungry looking cleaner than the Green at the confluence. Click here to see the impact at Toilet Bowl, in a photo taken the same day. |
