Emelia's comment below, "Since there isn't much logging going on
in the basin below the dam these days, as far as I
know".........While it's true the Feds are relatively inactive,
Sierra Pacific Industries is relentlessly clear cutting in the
Rush Creek, Big Browns Creek, Little Browns Creek, Indian Creek,
Readings Creek, Weaver Creek, etc., drainages (as well as the
upper South Fork). An over-flight of the area is truly an eye
opener. Bob Morris

<div>Watching the Trinity from our spot between Camp Kimtu and the
mouth of Willow Creek, I am amazed not only by the volume and
