Coldwater Camp Survey - 04-05-2015 - by Duane Waite

Link:	Coldwater Camp
Date:	04-05-2015
Surveyor Name:	Duane Waite
Camp Description:	Checked out conditions on a trail run from Nira to Manzana School House. The water is clear but running low. It won't be clear for now. However, the grass is still green, and hopefully the recent rain will keep it green a while longer. The swimming hole at horseshoe camp near the gorge is clear, cool and 4 feet deep. But it's been a dry spring. It won't be there for long, either.
Water Source:	Flowing
Water Source Details:	Low flow, but clear for now
