Three reaches were designated based on: Valley width and Channel morphology (Reach 1 and 2) and Spawning Survey Signs (Reaches 3 and 4). Riffles (45%), scour pools (26%) and rapids (16%) dominated the habitat, while gravel (44%), sand (23%), and silt/organics (13%) were the dominant substrate types. The survey begins at the confluence with Rock Creek. The survey proceeds through a lightly grazed field and continues into industrial forestland. The first two reaches are fairly flat, in reaches three and four the gradient increases until it is too extreme for coho. REACH DESCRIPTIONS: REACH 1: Length Ц 447 meters. The channel is constrained by terraces in a broad valley. The valley width index is 10. Land use for the reach is light grazing, with a subdominant land use of second growth timber. The average unit gradient is 0.7%. The channel characteristics include: primary 447m and secondary 21m. Six pools were greater than 1 meter deep, which averages to 12.8 deep pools per 1 km. There was no LWD greater or equal to 10m x .6m. The vegetation is based on one riparian transect. The trees found most frequently in the riparian zone were mostly deciduous ranging from 30 Ц 50 cm dbh. This survey begins in a lightly grazed field with a shotgun culvert (2x2m round) under Keasey Road just upstream from the confluence of Rock Creek. The first culvert crossing does not impede fish passage. There is poor riparian shade through this section of the stream. In this reach a small footbridge crosses the creek. At this point knotweed is present. The reach ends as the stream flows into a hillslope constrained reach near the reach change there also appears to be a landownership change. There is good LWD project potential for this reach with good access for industrial equipment. Within this reach the stream lacks in-stream LWD with zero key pieces of wood observed throughout the entire survey. The riparian area has no fencing and poor riparian shade throughout the entire reach was observed creating excellent riparian enhancement project potential. The reach has heavy beaver activity with gravel dominating the substrate. Further planning would be beneficial for a successful project within this reach. REACH 2: Length Ц 1641 meters. The channel is constrained by moderate hillslopes in a narrow valley. The valley width index is 1.7. Land use for the reach is second growth timber, with a subdominant land use of young timber. The average unit gradient is 1.5%. The channel characteristics include: primary 1641m and secondary 107m. Eight pools were greater than 1 meter deep, which averages to 4.6 deep pools per 1 km. There was twelve pieces of LWD greater or equal to 12m x .6m, which averages to 0.7 key pieces per 100m. The vegetation is based on 3 riparian transects. The trees found most frequently in the riparian zone were mostly mixed sizes of conifer ranging from 15 Ц 50 cm dbh, with some deciduous 3 Ц 30 cm dbh. This reach has average riparian shade and has some nice cedars in a few sections. Selder Creek Road crosses over the creek in this reach. Below Selder Creek Road there is a large debris jam formed from a blow downs. This is a potential low flow barrier. Above Selder Creek Road there are numerous other log steps that appear to be low flow barriers. Small gravels and sand dominate the reach substrate. Bedrock was present in the bottom of fast pools. Although the reach would benefit from potential LWD projects, there is limited accessibility for projects. REACH 3: Length Ц 1702 meters. The channel is constrained by moderate hillslopes in a narrow valley. The valley width index is 2.4. Land use for the reach is mature timber. The average unit gradient is 1.8%. The channel characteristics include: primary 1702m and secondary 211m. Four pools were greater than 1 meter deep, which averages to 2.2 deep pools per 1 km. There were twenty-one pieces of LWD greater or equal to 12m x .6m, which averages to 1.2 key pieces per 100m. The vegetation is based on 3 riparian transects. The trees found most frequently in the riparian zone were mostly mixed sizes of deciduous ranging from 15 Ц 50 cm dbh, with some conifer 15 Ц 30 cm dbh. This reach has average riparian shade. The reach starts at a salmon spawning survey sign. Water is lost throughout the reach. Gravels dominate the reach substrates. Pools are scoured to bedrock. Some decent off channel habitat is located within this reach. The reach would benefit from potential LWD projects but access is poor. REACH 4: Length Ц 339 meters. The channel is constrained by moderate hillslopes in a narrow valley. The valley width index is 1.8. Land use for the reach is timber harvest. The average unit gradient is 5.0%. The channel characteristics include: primary 339m and secondary 13m. There were no pools greater than 1 meter deep. There were two key pieces of LWD greater or equal to 12m x .6m, which averages to .6m per 100m. The vegetation is based on one riparian transect. The trees found most frequently in the riparian zone were mostly mixed sizes of conifer ranging from 3 Ц 15 cm dbh, with some conifer 30 Ц 90 cm dbh This reach has average riparian shade. The reach starts at a tributary, which enters the stream on the left and ends at a spawning survey end sign. This reach is typical of many run out reaches due to the fact that the gradient increases throughout and there is a lack of pools. Gravel and cobble dominate the substrates. Habitat for coho is poor. Both banks have had recent timber harvests and there is a high amount of windthrow. Beaver activity was not noted in this reach. This reach has poor potential for a LWD project.

The reach starts at a tributary, which enters the stream on the left and ends at a spawning survey end sign. This reach is typical of many run out reaches due to the fa ct that the gradient increases throughout and there is a lack of pools. Gravel and cobble dominate the substrates. Habitat for coho is poor. Both banks have had recent timber harvests and there is a high amount of windthrow. Beaver activity was not no ted in this reach.
