Fall 2013 Subsidence and Geologic Field Observations <br />South of Divide and Dry Fork Mining Areas (E -Seam) <br />3.10 Traverse G -G' <br />Traverse G -G' (previously known as Traverse L -L') is located along the Horse Gulch Road from <br />its connection with Dry Fork Road (east of Minnesota Reservoir) northward to the fork that either <br />leads to Apache Rocks (westward) or Sylvester Gulch/West Flatiron (eastward). No subsidence <br />features were noted along this traverse at the time of our fall 2013 field visit. Photographs obtained <br />of the only stock pond (USFS Water Resources Pond P22) located on the east side of this traverse <br />reveal a pond area slightly larger in size than observed during the spring 2013 field visit. <br />3.11 Photographic Observation Point 4 <br />This photographic observation point (formerly Photographic Observation Point 6) was not visited <br />during the fall 2013 field visit given the limited amount of field time available. <br />3.12 Photographic Observation Point 5 <br />This location (formerly Photographic Observation Point 7) was established on September 27, 2007 <br />at the MCC monitoring station that overlooks Monument Dam and Minnesota Reservoir from the <br />north (see Maps 1 and 2). From this location, various features associated with a large landslide <br />south of the Minnesota Reservoir can be readily identified including the head scarp, hummocky <br />topography, and numerous spring and wetland areas (i.e., discharge locations from the landslide <br />mass). Images from this location have been obtained each field visit since 2009. Comparisons to <br />date show very little discernable differences and are therefore excluded from this report. However, <br />a comparison of spring 2009 and spring 2013 images can be found on page 24 of the Spring 2013 <br />Report. <br />3.13 Traverse H -H' <br />Traverse H -H' (formerly Traverse N -N') begins where the Deer Creek drainage meets the Dry Fork <br />Road and continues southward up- valley to a locked gate near two stock water tanks (see Maps 1 <br />and 2). <br />831- 032.795 Wright Water Engineers, Inc.
