    Harry J. Wolf by Harry Wolf

    Water level at site was high, almost flood stage due to rain the previous night and this morning. Water was turbid. Ground is still frozen so all rain was running off, none soaking into ground. Note that there is also signs of brush clearing upstream of site on right (northeast) bank. Forest Preserve has started this brush clearing project to remove invasive species (Amur Honeysuckle & Buckthorn) along banks and in area.
