| Comments: | Nice, well secluded stream, similar in many respects to Sulfur Springs, but with a more stable flow. This stream has already shown it ability to hold trout-- in a 1995 EPA report rainbow trout fingerlings (possible steelhead) were found in this stream, and current observations shows that they are still there. The south branch of the stream orginates as a 13 degree C spring in Sharon sandstone before it runs under Caves Road. |
