Field notes
The page explains its visual key: a green band marks the escapement-goal range, a dot marks the season’s final count, and an orange tick marks the typical final. Its expanded season charts identify the historical median and goal range, while linked river pages are described as containing daily counts, counting methods, and counter notes. The homepage also names counter locations, including river miles, and notes a Little Susitna weir move upstream in 2025.
