This is a sample layout--use it as a template if you like. You certainly don't need to use this format, but please include links to your personal home page, the Interactive Watershed Homepage, documentation of your chosen watershed site (text-based description, photographs, GPS coordinates if available, etc.), and, most importantly, your creative response.

• Text describing the site:
  • San Miguel River: Norwood Bridge to Naturita: This is a little-known marvelous run, largely through wilderness. Easy floating for the first six miles leads past white sandstone bluffs and abandoned homesteads to Horsefly Creek. A stop and a hike up Horsefly Creek are recommended - excellent trout fishing. A small diversion dam two miles below Horsefly Creek requires portage over private land with permission required. There are several class II rapids above and below the bridge. From here the river enters a shallow, scenic canyon for a distance of five miles. A large powerplant is below the second bridge.
