Menomonee

This photo shows a very typical situation. A large branch (or a small tree) blows down (or has the soils eroded from its roots and falls) into the stream. The photo is looking upstream, showing where you'd be coming down around the corner with current sweeping you into this strainer. The photo is at unrunnable low flow. At runnable flows, there MAY be room to get around it, but there will be little TIME to get around it, as current will be swift.
