    Lake Run at Nelson Lake in Dick Young Forest Preserve by Maureen Mrenna

    Thin coat of ice over much of stream but not all. Very cold - sample started to register quickly then took a long time to register to the top as I suspect the tube got cold. I held it in my gloves hand to warm it enough to complete. Sample was cloudier with sediment than I remembered from last year.

    DuPage River at Hammel Woods by Kaitlin Soto

    Hope I did this correctly! It’s my first one. It didn’t let me type 150 in the PPM section, but wanted a number under 10 so I choose the 3.8 equivalent.
