Looking off Annapolis Road Bridge upstream on the South Fork Gualala River on April 10, 2002. Note very small particle size distribution, meandering channel and lack of pool frequency and depth. All these signs are indicative of active sediment contributions from upstream areas. Photo by Pat Higgins, April 10, 2002.
