Two weeks ago Jacksons Creek was in significant flood, with water level up to 3m (usually less than .8). Impacts include old tree guards caught in riparian plants, mounds of branches which have floated down the river and got caught, some riparaian plants have been washed away, or pushed over by the current. Water flow and water level are both still higher than usual.
