Summary

This child page contains sediment-size distribution data collected from five sites on the Upper Colorado River, Colorado, during April 6-8, 2022. The five sites selected for monitoring were located at the Pumphouse Recreation Area, Radium Recreation Site, State Bridge, above Catamount, and below Sweetwater Creek. Pebble counts were performed at each of the five monitoring sites to document sediment-size distributions. All the sediment-size distribution data are presented in CSV files, with one file for each monitoring site.
