Step 1 BENCHMARK LOCATION
Directions to Benchmark: walked in from corner of 17th st and Wolfe street down the stairs - headed south on path went to area that many people go up and down. Tires in stream, concrete blocks in stream wide open area (might consider planting here)
Step 2 CROSS-SECTIONAL SURVEY

Location relative to benchmark: @ Photos Taken? yes
Bankfull Channel Width: 3.80 Average Bankfull Depth: 17.53
Wetted Channel Width: 3.20 Average Wetted Depth: 5.67
Measurements taken every 0.50 metres Number of measurements taken: 15
