Teton Creek Restoration Complete

The Teton Creek restoration project it officially complete.  We arrived  this summer to more structure to our creek.
View Upstream
 Root balls and willow shoots line the cut banks.  There are also willow shoots and branches angled upstream in the upper ledge outside the main channel.  These should grow and slow the water.
View Downstream
The riffles are made with angular pieces of Ashton rhyolite, the gray rock on the edges.  The round river rock simply rolls down the river.  
The Basic Structure

So obviously I needed a place to sit and watch the fish swim through the pools.  Here is the creekside
bench I made.
