Chuck spend all of July out at his field research site on the Sandy River, OR. Here he is standing on some new bars in the river. In the distance you can see the former location of the Marmot Dam. Chuck's project is to try and see what has changed on the Sandy River since that dam was removed in October 2007.
Andi came out to Oregon for a few days. She and Chuck stayed with their friends Rose and Kurt out in the Oregon countryside.
After she left, Chuck's interns arrived. He worked them pretty hard for 3 weeks. They camped out near the river and then every day they were hard at work counting rocks (26,000+ of them) and surveying the river bed.
Here are a few more photos from the trip.
