Hendersen Creek, Spring Creek, Roberts Creek, Drift Creek <br /> • and Lee Creek. All creeks are ephemeral in the lease area , <br /> and become perennial down gradient . Hendersen Spring , <br /> Roberts Drift and Lee Creek flow directly into the East <br /> Muddy, while the other tributaries flow into the Clear Fork <br /> of the East Muddy. Table III-C-8 , East Muddy Basin Drainage <br /> Data, tabulates the streams , their drainage basin size and <br /> mean basin elevations. <br /> Two small ponds occur within the lease area ; <br /> these are located in northern most portion of the lease at <br /> the head of Second Creek and in the SE14, NWT, of Sec . 29 , <br /> T.. 10S . , R. 89W . Numerous ponds and lakes exist within the <br /> mine plan adjacent area to the east and west of the lease <br /> • areas . <br /> A spring exists in the Clear Fork of the East <br /> Muddy Drainage adjacent area and is located in the NWT, SEA <br /> of Sec . 14, T . IOS , R. 90W on an intermittent drainage of Rock <br /> Creek. This is believed to be a landslide related feature <br /> occurring as seepage in a poorly drained area . (Willard <br /> Owens , 1980) <br /> Drainages from the west side of Huntsman <br /> Ridge have moderate slope of 20 percent . Hillslopes are <br /> characterized in places by an irregular topography . Vegeta- <br /> tion consists of aspen, spruce , and scrub oak, with areas of <br /> open parks and meadows ; overall vegetation on the west side <br /> of the ridge is denser than on the east side of the ridge . <br /> • Data from a U.
