Had over 250mm since fires, first off very black with ash & mud, has experienced several high water events plus one big flood since fires, now fairly clear even in high water. Upper reaches of watershed burnt hot and large area until rains doused fires in Feb. Seems to have recovered mostly. Some fish sightings, but not as many as usual.
