The objective of this project was to prepare detailed and reconnaissance terrain stability maps, including surface erosion and sediment transfer potential ratings, at 1 :20,000 scale, for the Scotch Creek watershed, including Kwikoit Creek and Coming (Lee) Creek. This work was done for Federated Co-operatives Limited, Canoe, and I administered by High Country Forestry Consulting Ltd., Salmon Arm, B.C. The 64,000 ha area of Scotch Creek includes its main tributary (Kwikoit Creek) and a small watershed west of the mouth of Scotch Creek(Corning Creek). The Scotch Creek area extends north to the southern edge of the Celista Creek/Humamilt Lake area (mapped in 1997) and west to the Salmon Arm Forest District boundary. To the east and south, the area is bounded by some unmapped terrain and mapped (North Shore Shuswap) along Shuswap Lake and Seymour Arm. terrain stability, erosion, landslide |
