Cableway Measurement
On April 10, 2014 hydrologic technicians Nick Stasulis and Anthony Underwood visited the USGS gaging station on Grand Lake Stream at Grand Lake Stream, Maine. The cableway was used to make a discharge measurement with an acoustic Doppler current profiler (ADCP).

Traveling Hydrographer
Spring in Maine introduces significant challenges for hydrographers when it comes to accessing remote stations. In this photo, hydrologic technician Anthony Underwood is prepared to visit the USGS gaging station on Libby Brook near Northfield, Maine.

Rising River
On April 9, 2014 a visit to the USGS gaging station on Libby Brook near Northfield, Maine showed that while runoff had caused a large rise in the small brook, there still remained a significant snowpack in the area.
