A beautiful early fall day with very light wind.
Report Details
A beautiful early fall day with very light wind... The only remarkable thing was the extremely low flow in the waterways, lower than I've ever observed here, undoubtedly as a result of the severe/extreme drought in Coos County this year.... Merchant Creek at Seven Devils Wayside was so low that most people took advantage of the opportunity to step across it and hike mile 110... The waterfall cascading down the bluff at about mile 111.5 was barely visible, and only a trickle... I'll attach photos for documentation.
