Click on image to enlarge (25K). Click here to display a larger version (209K).This aerial photo shows the Garcia River at the Kendall property in 2000. The river here is wide as a result of bank erosion. Although there was a small scale riparian restoration project here, high water in 1997 and use of heavy equipment in the channel caused it to partially fail. Photo provided by Peter Dobbins and Friends of the Garcia River.

Notice how the Garcia River returns to a confined channel as it moves downstream, running along the alder lined bank. This helps maintain cool temperatures for salmonids and provides cover for them from predators. Photo provided by Peter Dobbins and Friends of the Garcia River.
