This sampling point is located at Ram Cat Beach in Confluence, PA.
Confluence, Pennsylvania, is where the Youghiogheny River emerges from Youghiogheny Lake, a US Army Corps impoundment, and flows downstream to the "turkeyfoot," an area where Laurel Hill Creek and the Casselman River join the Yough. Just downstream from this confluence is the put-in for the Middle Yough, which is the section between Confluence and Ohiopyle. The section of the Yough downstream from the dam is used for fishing, kayaking, rafting, paddleboarding, and many other activities. Our sampling in Confluence occurs at the beach for the Ramcat put-in for the Middle Yough.
