This section of Cole's brook was very good overall. Certain areas such as the abandoned cars, and a couple of areas of algae should be investigated and or dealt with, but these seem to be of limited impact to the stream overall. Most of the land right along the brook is not developed, nor could it be without significant drainage of the swampy areas. The depth of the water along the route was no more than 1-2 inches in most places, thus minimizing the recreational usage. Additionally, it seems likely that most of this section is seasonal, perhaps lowering or completely drying up during the later summer months. Perhaps a follow-up near the end of the summer would verify that.
