Last rainfall not specified. Water clarity due to recent rain in last 24hrs. Had to collect water samples from several areas of creek to carry out full tests. Estimated 4-500mm water depth had flowed through the creek with a width of 2-3m across the creek. Vegetation quite flattened along the length. Apart from the water snails no bug activity present.
