ODFW AQUATIC INVENTORY PROJECT STREAM REPORT STREAM: North Fork Dixie Creek BASIN: Burnt River DATES: June 28 – July 11, 2005 SURVEY CREW: Tom Stassen / Nicole Judge REPORT PREPARED BY: S. Stein STREAM ORDER: 3 BASIN AREA: 45.255 km 2 FIRST ORDER TRIBUTARIES: 78 USGS MAPS: Rye Valley, Mormon Basin ECOREGION: Blue Mountain Basin and Upland HUC NUMBER: 17050202 LLID: 1174506444498 GENERAL DESCRIPTION: The North Fork Dixie Creek habitat survey began at the confluence with Kitchen Gulch and continued upstream 7,607 meters. Four reaches were designated based on channel morphology, land ownership, and a major tributary junction. The reach channels were predominantly constrained by hillslopes. Land uses were light and heavy cattle grazing. Sand, gravel, and cobble were the primary substrate types. Riffles, beaver pools, and rapids were the dominant habitat types. The trees found most frequently in the riparian zones were hardwoods 3-15cm. REACH DESCRIPTIONS: Reach 1: (T13S-R43E-S06NE) Length 973 meters. Reach one began at the confluence with Kitchen Gulch and extended to a geomorphic change. The channel was constrained by alternating multiple terraces and hillslope in a broad valley floor. The average valley width index was 10.5 (range: 7.0-20.0). Land use for the reach was heavy grazing. The average unit gradient was 2.5 percent. Dammed beaver pools (63%) dominated the stream habitat. Fine sediment (56%) was the predominant stream substrate. Bank erosion was 12% of the entire reach length. Large wood volume was 0.1m 3 /100m. The average residual pool depth was 0.25m. The trees found most frequently in the riparian zones were hardwoods 3-15cm and conifers 3-15 cm dbh (based on two riparian transects). Reach 2: (T12S-R43E-S31SE) Length 3,551 meters. The channel was hillslope constrained in a moderate V-shaped narrow valley floor. The average valley width index was 4.1 (range: 1.25-20.0). Land uses for the reach were heavy and light grazing. The average unit gradient was 3.1 percent. Riffles (69%) were the dominate stream habitat. Fine sediment (38%), gravel (29%), cobble (18%), and boulder (15%) comprised most of the stream substrate. Bank erosion was 13% for the entire reach length. Large wood volume was 1.1m 3 /100m. The average residual pool depth was 0.29m. The trees found most frequently in the riparian zones were hardwoods 3-15cm (based on four riparian transects).

STREAM REPORT STREAM: North Fork Dixie Creek BASIN: Burnt River DATES: June 28 – July 11, 2005 SURVEY CREW: Tom Stassen / Nicole Judge REPORT PREPARED BY: S. Stein STREAM ORDER: 3 BASIN AREA: 45.255 km2 FIRST ORDER TRIBUTARIES: 78 USGS MAPS: Rye Valley, Mormon Basin ECOREGION: Blue Mountain Basin and Upland HUC NUMBER: 17050202 LLID: 1174506444498 GENERAL DESCRIPTION: The North Fork Dixie Creek habitat survey began at the confluence with Kitchen Gulch and continued upstream 7,607 meters. Four reaches were designated based on channel morphology, land ownership, and a major tributary junction. The reach channels were predominantly constrained by hillslopes. Land uses were light and heavy cattle grazing. Sand, gravel, and cobble were the primary substrate types. Riffles, beaver pools, and rapids were the dominant habitat types. The trees found most frequently in the riparian zones were hardwoods 3-15cm. REACH DESCRIPTIONS: Reach 1: (T13S-R43E-S06NE) Length 973 meters. Reach one began at the confluence with Kitchen

Gulch and extended to a geomorphic change. The channel was constrained by alternating multiple terraces and hillslope in a broad valley floor. The average valley width index was 10.5 (range: 7.0-20.0). Land use for the reach was heavy grazing. The average unit gradient was 2.5 percent. Dammed beaver pools (63%) dominated the stream habitat. Fine sediment (56%) was the predominant stream substrate. Bank erosion was 12% of the entire reach length. Large wood volume was 0.1m3/100m. The average residual pool depth was 0.25m. The trees found most frequently in the riparian zones were hardwoods 3-15cm and conifers 3-15 cm dbh (based on two riparian transects).

Reach 2: (T12S-R43E-S31SE) Length 3,551 meters. The channel was hillslope constrained in a

moderate V-shaped narrow valley floor. The average valley width index was 4.1 (range: 1.25-20.0). Land uses for the reach were heavy and light grazing. The average unit gradient was 3.1 percent. Riffles (69%) were the dominate stream habitat. Fine sediment (38%), gravel (29%), cobble (18%), and boulder (15%) comprised most of the stream substrate. Bank erosion was 13% for the entire reach length. Large wood volume was 1.1m3/100m. The average residual pool depth was 0.29m. The trees found most frequently in the riparian zones were hardwoods 3-15cm (based on four riparian transects).

North Fork Dixie Creek continued Reach 3: (T12S-R42E-S25SW) Length 983 meters. Reach three began at the confluence with Tater

Patch Gulch and extended to a fence crossing. The channel was hillslope constrained in a moderate V-shaped narrow valley floor. The average valley width index was 1.5 (range: 1.3-1.8). Land uses for the reach were light and heavy grazing. The average unit gradient was 2.8 percent. Riffles (85%) and rapids (9%) were the dominate stream habitats. Sand (43%) and gravel (34%) were the primary stream substrates. Bank erosion was 32% of the reach length. Large wood volume was 3.7m3/100m. The average residual pool depth was 0.30m. The trees found most frequently in the riparian zones were hardwoods 3-15cm (based on two riparian transects).

Reach 4: (T12S-R42E-S25NE) Length 2,100 meters. Reach four began at a fence crossing. The

channel was hillslope constrained in a moderate V-shaped narrow valley floor. The average valley width index was 1.6 (range: 1.0-2.5). Cattle grazing – both heavy and light impact – was the primary land use. The average unit gradient was 4.6 percent. Rapids (56%) and riffles (43%) were the dominant stream habitats. Gravel (31%), sand (30%), and cobble (21%) were the primary stream substrates. Bank erosion was 14% of the reach length. Large wood volume was 1.0m3/100m. The average residual pool depth was 0.24m. The trees found most frequently in the riparian zones were hardwoods 3-15cm (based on one riparian transect).

COMMENTS Several beaver dams and beaver pools were noted in reach one.

Rainbow trout were observed up to the end of the survey. In reach two the crew noted cattle in the stream. Evidence of light and heavy grazing was noted

throughout the stream survey. Kitchen Gulch, Clough Gulch, Pole Gulch, Brouchaux Gulch, Freezeout Gulch, Bear Valley Gulch,

Cochran Gulch, and Tater Patch Gulch were the named tributaries that entered the surveyed stream length.
