subarea 5 priorities: east side tributaries
A geologically unique area representing the intersection of older basalt groups (~50 mya) as well as alluvium from Missoula flood events. Watersheds are smaller to medium size with predominantly steep slopes apart from Goble Creek. Goble creek is the largest sub watershed of this group with the highest proportion of unconfined floodplain. Fox Creek is unique in its location within the urban area of Rainier.
