SPAWNING FACILITIES Good, though probably limited (estimated).

VALLEY DESCRIPTION A very short glacial valley rising steeply a short distance from the mouth. The delta 
and lower -5 miles of valley are typically wide and level. The valley floor is well timbered. 
DRAINAGE The area is estimated to be less than 3 square miles. The headwaters are in high mountains (over 
3, 000 feet) and probably drain snowmelt waters until the middle of summer. 
STREAM MOUTH IDENTIFICATION The stream emerges from a well forested flat valley floor. The valley 
behind is very scenic with steep glacially carved walls. 
ANCHORAGE At the drop-off.
