They are characterized by steep to nearly vertical canyon walls. All four
gulches have well developed colluvial deposits within their streambeds.
From south to north the gulches are known as 1) Freeman Gulch; 2) Sheep
Corral Gulch; 3) Dove Gulch; and 4) Iron Point Gulch. Freeman Gulch is
typically dry with only one flow event noted in monitoring results from June
1995 through November 1997 and that was in June 1997 during a significant
precipitation event.
Lower Sheep Corral Gulch and Lower Dove Gulch are also expected to be
typically dry with flow occurring during spring snowmelt and after significant
precipitation events. They were noted as dry during the late 1997 field
reconnaissance and during all 1998 monitoring events.
Iron point gulch is an intermittent stream. Following are flow measurements
taken through March 1999.

Terror Creek is a perennial stream which drains approximately 29 square
miles (18,560 acres). The dendritic drainage pattern of tributary streams
may be modified in part by geologic structures fracture zones or faults.
Peak stream flows for the East and West Forics of Terror Creek occur during
spring snowmelt and heavy rainstorm events. Discharges from Terror Creek
Reservoir enhance continued stream flow from May-June through
September-October.
Diversions for agricultural uses are withdrawn through Terror Creek Ditch
from Terror Creek from May through October.
There are four unnamed, generally east to west flowing, ephemeral gulches
which are tributary to Terror Creek within the permit and adjacent area.
These gulches are expected to be typically dry with flow occurring during
spring snowmelt and after significant precipitation events. On the
