We found toad eggs along the edge of the water and saw minnows. We saw where soil could erode into the creek but also saw trees and plants holding the soil, even on the steep side. One of our 3 tests for pH gave us a reading of 9.

One test for pH scored a 9. We noticed flood litter that the next rain could carry into the stream. |
