Rush Creek - Lower Crossing Overlook
Between May and September of 2005 the high runoff due to heavy snowpack reworked the main channel and removed a row of willows where the channel finally settled. Since the rewatering, Rush Creek has become a living changing trout stream.
These pictures have been taken over a number of years and seasons to understand the changes occurring at this point.
The location is above the crossing of Test Station Road and Rush Creek below US 395.
