Abstract
GEOMORPHIC SETTING: Nichols Drive is an unpaved, riverine road that is supported atop a streambank next to a sharp outside bend in the Huron River (Fig. 1). The streambank lies at the base of a steep glacial moraine. The Huron River has a drainage area of 730 sq. miles, a daily mean stream flow of 380 cfs, and a maximum recorded peak discharge at the site of 3,330 cfs (1968). Dams upstream and downstream of the site now tend to regulate flow and suppress peaks in this reach of stream. The river is relatively narrow at the site which tends to increase velocity and depth of flow.
