 vegetation patterns, and water features combine to 

 create a highly memorable and visually pleasing

 diverse and cultural modifications, if present, either 

 add to or do not detract from the visual setting. 



Moderate scenic quality. For these segments, 

 landforms, vegetation patterns, and water features 

 along the river combine to create harmonious but 

 common visual settings. Views along and away from the 

 river are somewhat varied, but lack a high degree 

 of contrast and diversity. Encroachment of cultural 

 modifications may be evident, and either adds little 

 to or detracts from visual quality.

 create visual settings lacking in variety and 

 contrast. Views along and away from the river 



are monotonous and common. Cultural modifications 

 may dominate and detract from visual quality.
