USGS hydrologist Adam Birken prepares to measure streamflow on the South Fork of the Ogden River near Hunstville, Utah. This streamgage has been monitoring water levels and flow since March 21, 1921, making it one of 25 centennial gauges in Utah. 

This is a chart recorder similar to the one installed inside the USGS streamgage on the South Fork of the Ogden River in 1921.
