By mid- to late-summer, Redwood Creek becomes a network of disconnected pools.

2017 Redwood Creek low-flow monitoring

Updated May 23, 2019

Monitoring started earlier this year, on May 11th, in order to catch the spring recession limb. It was nice to see young of the year steelhead upstream of the Diner Creek Culvert replacement. 

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.

**Upper Redwood Creek, China Creek, and Redwood Creek 2.5 include calculated monitoring points for the July 27/28 measurement dates
