Stream S3 is a strong, intermittent reach that originates at a headcut below an
area of overland wash from a culvert outlet at NW Cary Parkway and flows into
stream S1 outside of the study area. Stream S3 has strong sinuosity and
bedrock observed throughout. Baseflow was pooled and one frog was
observed within stream S3.
