Summary Information
Fish Passability 0
Fish Passage is an area of concern for this site. Yes, the inlet is crushed almost all the way to the ground which could present a barrier to fish passage and block water from going through.
A future visit to this site is recommended. To see how the culver behaves when water is present.
