New local logging activity


The above hydrograph shows that there are frequent rainfall events during November, with two significant peaks of about 0.6m to 0.7m stage (maximum daily rainfall of 37.5mm on 21 Nov.).



Below you can see that some local logging activity has begun close to the gauging station. The impact on the ground and soil of the caterpillar tracked felling machine appears to be rather severe, and does not compare well to the traditional aerial yarding technique which I witnessed being practised here about 20 years ago.
