A stream inventory was conducted during the summer of2002 on Kangaroo Creek. The survey began 7,334 feet (1.39 miles) above the confluence with the East Fork Scott River and extended upstream I.35 miles.

The Kangaroo Creek inventory was conducted in two parts: habitat inventory and biological inventory. The objective of the habitat inventory was to document the habitat available to anadromous salmonids in Kangaroo Creek. The objective of the biological inventory was to document the presence and distribution of juvenile salmonid species.

The objective of this report is to document the current habitat conditions and recommend options for the potential enhancement of habitat for Chinook salmon, coho salmon, and steelhead trout. Recommendations for habitat improvement activities are based upon target habitat values suitable for salmonids in California's north coast streams.
