Description

Put-in below the dam off of Drummond Dam Road.

Approximate put-in elevation is 1240'.

Our listed take-out elevation is 920'.

Thus elevation change is approximately 320'

making overall gradient ~28.4 FPM.

Drainage at the put-in is 28 square miles.

Drainage at the take-out is 49.7 square miles (a 77.5% increase).

And, this is as good a place as any for an aside ... normally the software/data-layer calculation of the length of various runs tends to be very close to the length I had gotten via tracing the stream on GoogleMaps. This one, oddly, is quite 'off'. GoogleMaps measures distance to our listed (private property) take-out as 11.33 miles (vs. AW/data-layer distance of 8.6 miles), and distance to the Raymond Avenue/ 'Taylor Lane'/'Anderson Road' bridge take-out as 12.05 miles (vs AW/data-layer distance of 9.2 miles).
