The water level of the creek was much lower than on other testing days and the flow was much calmer. This was the first time we've tested when there hasn't been heavy rainfall in previous days. We were unable to test in our usual spot due to overgrowth on banks of the creek and fallen trees. We tested a little further downstream.
