Dave Webb, Shasta CRMP coordinator, surveys cattle access points installed at the Peters and Parker ranches which sustained minor damage during high water in January 1997. Necessary repairs to these structures were minor. If the gates had been secured in a closed position parallel to the river's flow, even the minor damage could have been avoided. Photo taken by Pat Higgins as part of Mid-Program Evaluation of the Klamath River Basin Fishery Restoration Program (see Kier Assoc, 1999 in the KRIS Bibliography).

Cross fences to this stock water access at the Peters Ranch were replaced prior to this photo being taken in June 1997. Fences parallel to the river generally sustained little damage while cross fences perpendicular to the river were sometimes knocked down. Photo taken by Pat Higgins as part of Mid-Program Evaluation of the Klamath River Basin Fishery Restoration Program (see Kier Assoc, 1999 in the KRIS Bibliography).
