		A survey of the Boardman River was performed by the City of Traverse City in 1914 to publish a plat of area (fig.
		The amount of erosion occurring between 1914 and 1996 was determined by subtracting the distance between the sidewalk and the rivers edge from the 1914 survey from the distance from the sidewalk to the rivers edge for the 1996 survey, along each of the five transects (Table 3).
		Drawing in the new position of the river bank for 1996 indicates that the rate of erosion upstream from the cut bank (150' transect) is (86 feet/ 82 years)= 1 foot/ year.

	Welcome to the City of Boardman!
		Boardman is a rapidly growing community in northeastern Oregon along the banks of the beautiful Columbia River.

		Along the Columbia River, the average winter temperature is 37 F and the average summer temperature is 73 F. Precipitation between April and September averages two inches while seasonal snowfall averages nine inches along the Columbia River and 17 inches at higher elevations.
		Surface water in the area consists of the Columbia River to the north, the Umatilla River to the northeast, the intermittent stream in Six-Mile Canyon, and lesser streams in the south which end in sediment and fractured rock.
		Together with the adjacent Boardman Bombing Range, the state lands are part of one of the few remaining large blocks of native grassland and shrub steppe habitat in the Columbia Basin and a hot-spot for at-risk terrestrial wildlife, including the Washington ground squirrel.

		The Boardman River is a prime example and is further discussed in the remaining portion of this paper.
		The Boardman River’s drainage basin was expanded greatly by this event of capture and it has tributaries as far East as Kalkaska and as far South as the Kingsley area (figure 2).
		Some obvious affects of stream capture are increased erosion, increase in discharge of the capturing river, and an increase in the drainage basin of the capturing river.

		Boardman River residents are relying on the process
		When talk about razing the dams on the Boardman River began to get serious a few years ago, residents who live on the ponds created by the dams worried they would be left literally high and dry with no say in the matter.
		To its credit, the Boardman River Dams Committee asked the state and Grand Traverse County, which actually owns the dam, to delay any draw-down unless there is an "imminent safety hazard" that must be dealt with immediately.

	GORP - The Boardman River - Fishing Northern Michigan's Golden Triangle
		The Boardman River has a long-standing reputation for big browns and oodles of wild brook trout, descendants of the same finicky fish that inspired the most famous fly pattern in the world—the Adams.
		As the story goes, after one frustrating evening fishing the Boardman, Judge Charlie Adams implored his friend Len Halladay to create a fly that would imitate the insect the discriminating trout were favoring that day.
		On shallow, swift-running rivers like the Boardman, Betsy, Platte, and Jordan, water that might never relinquish fish over 12 inches during the day can, at night during the Hex hatch, yield regular hook-ups with browns well over that that mark.
