Notes

Water levels were very high due to rain and blockage at the test site by natural debris (logs, plant matter). It is not clear if the blockage was caused naturally or intentionally by a muskrat. A blocked inflow picture is included as well as the cleared blockage on the test day. Water flowed well evidenced by the foam of the current. Mallard ducks gathered near the outflow / test site.
