Cold Stream – Monitoring Equipment

I have identified some equipment that may be useful to setup a watershed monitoring program for Cold Stream. Here are some equipment suggestions to assist in monitoring the Cold Stream watershed. Some of this equipment would be unnecessary for constant monitoring however a seasonal monitoring program would require most of this equipment. Therefore, I tried to identify items that would provide both an anecdotal as well as scientific context to the monitoring program.  Besides adding an element of fun, it would also provide valuable information as to insect and fish habitat as well as stream temperatures throughout the four seasons experienced by Cold Stream.  Also, water levels are important for continued trout stocking and natural spawning programs.
