Numerous seeps and spring-like areas along the toe of silt banks and sandstone cliffs were
observed along the channel during Trip No.1, particularly between Dark Canyon (RM 183) and
Sheep. Canyon (RM 177). These seeps and spring persist and are probably the result of return flow
from bank storage into the lake following the drop in water level As a result of this copious return
flow, large sediment accumulations were continuously being saturated and sloughed into the channel,
then transported downstream into the lake. Several isolated pools were also observed and seine{f in
thisregioD during Trip No.2, butno Colorado squaw1ish were captured from these.
