Field notes
The page divides the channel into eight reaches and pairs each with route observations, alongside a timeline of industrial use, recreation, and declining flow. Its founding dispatch records a two-person walk in 94 °F weather; the project also states that flow fell from about 250 cubic feet per second to 25 after 1945. The route sketch draws on the walk and aerial photographs, but the site warns that it is neither to scale nor suitable for navigation.
