in the lower 2 miles, with nimerous good shallow riffles and small 

 pools. This ].ower section of the stream bed is composed chiefly of 

 mediim and small rubble, and it was estimated that $0 percent of the 

 bottom constituted suitable salmon spawning area« The lower section 

 of Anthony Fork was reported to have formerly supported a good run 

 of Chinook salmon and steelhead trout. It is now inaccessible and 

 of no present value to these species© 



6F-(2). An tone Creek .— (July 7, 19U2; Parkhurst.) Antone 

 Creek enters the North Powder River approxima :ely lU miles above 

 the mouth. It extends for about U^ miles to its source in a small, 

 high mountain lake. The stream was 15 feet wide at the mouth, and 

 was discharging about 20 c,f»s. The volume decreases rapidly up- 

 strean, the discharge at the outlet of Anthony Lake being less than 

 5 c,f .So The water temperature at the mouth was it9 F. The gradient 

 is steep, and increases upstream. Antons Creek is mainly a succession of 

 cascades and small falls, with the stream bed composed chj efly of bed- 

 rock and large rubble. Less than 10 percent of t he bottom con- 

 stitutes suitable salmon spawning area, Antone Creek is of no value 

 to salmon at present and of little potential value. A few steelnead 

 may have formerly entered the stream, 



6f-(3), Dutch Flat Creek , — (Not surveyed,) Dutch Flat Creek 

 enters the North Powder River approximately l5 miles above the mouth. 

 It extends for about 8 miles to its source in several small, high 

 mountain lakes. It is a typical turbulent mountain stream of steep 

 gradient, similar to Antone Creek, and is of no value to salmon, 



6g, Muddy Creek ,— (July 5, 19U2; Parkhurst,) Muddy Creek 

 enters the powder River 2 miles below the town of Haines, or 

 approximately 71 milos above the mouth. It is a small stream, 

 about 8 miles long, and was discharging less than 3 c,f,s. Several 

 small open ditches take most of the flow for irrigation and stock 

 watering. Muddy Creek was considered of no possible value to salmon, 



6h# Rock Creek , — (July $, 19U2; Parkhurst.) Rock Creek enters 

 the Powder River 1 mile below the town of Haines, or approximately 

 72 miles above the mouth. It is a small stream, about 15 miles long, 

 and was discharging less than 5 c,f,s. Several small open ditches 

 take most of the flow for irrigation and stock watering. Rock Creek 

 was considered of no possible value to salmon, 



6-1, Pine Greek . — (July U, 19U2; Parkhurst.) Pine Creek 

 enters the Powder River 2 miles above the town of Haines, or approxi- 

 mately 7$ miles above the mouth. It is about 10 miles long, and was 

 discharging about 5 cf.s. Several small open ditches take most of 

 the flow for irrigation and stock watering. Pine Creek was consider- 

 ed of little possible value to salmon.
