From Casey Clapsaddle, USFS and student at CSU, the runoff was more <br />than the 7/28/97 storm. Parts of the FS road 543 (Buffalo Creek Rd) WASHED <br />OUT from Shinglemill Creek (peak discharge about 1,000 cfs) downstream to <br />County Road 126 at the community of Buffalo Creek. Spring Gulch and Sand <br />Draw also contributed runoff. From information Casey provided for Buffalo <br />Creek at Sand Draw (CR126) and my channel geometry data, the peak <br />discharge at CR126 was about 1,000 to 1,200 cfs FROM LESS RAIN THAN ON 7/28 <br />STORM. <br /> <br />rj <br /> <br />Robert D Jarrett <br />U.S. Geological Survey <br />Box 25046, MS 412 <br />Denver, CO 80225 <br /> <br />Phone: 303-236-6447 <br />Fax: 303-236-5034 <br />Internet: rjarrett@usgs.gov <br /> <br />Page 1 <br />
