Description: Upper Wind River Basin has a massive debris flow that is active. Gravity is causing the debris to flow downslope aided by winter snow accumulation and liquefaction from snow melt. The pond is one of many occupying depressions within the debris flow lobes. In this shallow depression Emergent Marsh, Wetland Scrub-shrub, and Floating Aquatic Bed are gradually replacing Open Water. |
