Bit puzzled as EC at DRY020 is 1860 us/cm and at this site DRY025 downstream is only 850 us/cm. Peter checked both. Must be water coming in somewhere to dilute creek between sites. Sunday Creek more turbid than Dry Creek. Might be beacause of fire effects, although no rain immediately prior to sampling
