View looking downstream on mainstem Navarro River on Greenwood Ridge Road Bridge near Hendy Woods State Park. Although there is good cover from hardwood trees overhanging the channel on the right, the large gravel bar is a sign of major aggradation here. Algae can also be seen in the shallow portion of the channel in the distance. Photo by Pat Higgins, 9/21/01.

View looking upstream on mainstem Navarro River in Hendy Woods State Park. Streambed is nearly dry as a result of aggradation and flow depletion. The small particle size distribution on the gravel bar is consistent with high sediment supply. Photo by Pat Higgins, 9/21/01.

View looking downstream on the lower mainstem Navarro River from a low water summer bridge. The shallow, warm water is causing an algae bloom as the Navarro almost loses surface flow at this point. The average daily flow on this date according to the USGS gauge was 1 cubic foot per second. Photo by Pat Higgins, 9/21/01.
