2017 Redwood Creek low-flow monitoring

Updated October 13, 2018

The most recent flow monitoring in Redwood Creek occurred on October 6. Out of the 9 sites monitored, only two sites have flows. Both of these sites are located on the mainstem Redwood Creek and have a slight increase in flows since they were last monitored (Sept 22). SRF's field monitor noted that the few remaining alive fish are trapped in small pools.

Data is plotted on a logarithmic scale; 0.01 represents "0" or "No flow." Measurements are rounded to the nearest tenths.

Hover your mouse over the graph lines to see daily values. Click on the Monitoring Site Labels (Dinner Creek, Miller Creek, etc.) to remove/add information.

Redwood Creek 1, 2, 2.5, 3, & 4 and Upper Redwood Creek are mainstem sites.

Dinner Creek and Miller Creek are Redwood Creek tributaries.
