        Site Description:
        This site is on the Caribou Creek main stem above the 
            confluence with C3, so it is the combination of the C1 and C2 
            basins. This is an interesting site: it has the only well developed 
            canopy of riparian trees in CPCRW, and it is always the first to 
            thaw in the spring and the last to freeze in the fall.
    

        Site Directions:
        This site is accessible by all-terrain vehicle or 
            snow machine only. Take a left at the conex, and follow the trail 
            that crosses C4 and heads up the Caribou basin towards C2 and C3. At 
            the fork in the trail (about 3 miles up), take a left towards C3 and 
            the Haystack trail. The trail crosses an open muskeg area in the 
            Caribou Creek valley bottom, then crosses Caribou Creek at the CB 
            site.
