Notes

Tarryn joined us today which was great. It was beautiful Winter's day as you can see from the photos. The river gauge has been cleaned however recent rain has caused a lot of silt and mud to flow downstream and the gauge numbers were hard to read. We took a photo and later extrapolated the height of the river from the photo of the gauge.
