Wetland Category: Streambed
Description: Buck Creek is a losing stream. Water from the mountains disappears into the sand streambed and flows underground. The surface of the streambed is saturated. After summer storms and heavy snowmelt from the mountains the water will flow across the surface of the streambed, making it an intermittent flow pattern. |
