Photos and Flow (discharge) Graphs
Note the thin purple line which shows the mean daily discharge (flow). The flow completely stopped
during the summer of 2003 and 2004 (as well as 2002 but not shown on the graph).
As noted on the graph and the photos below, the flow has started up again with the irrigation
season ended. The thick purple line just above the date line indicates no data due to ice conditions.
