Site: C3 Site Type: Area Unit: CPCRW
Site Description: The tributary basins of Caribou Creek are all arbitrarily designated with a "C". The C3 basin is the sub-basin with the most permafrost of the CPCRW sub-basins. As such, it has been often been studied intensively in conjunction with C2, the sub-basin with the least amount of permafrost. The basin trends to the northeast, with black spruce/feather moss slopes and permafrost-underlain treeless muskeg in valley bottom.
