Description:
|
Violent thunderstorms can cause severe erosion and debris flows that transport sediments and large wood debris to rivers. The photos show the result of a large thunderstorm that brought tons of sediment and wood into the Middle Fork of the Salmon River in July 2002 and created a new rapid.
