...to Explore a Local Creek?

The field research team at The Ohio State University is conducting a sampling of local creeks. Your name has been referred to them as someone interested in the health of rural water passageways. They have asked you to join their team (and here you thought the only team OSU had was on the football field, maybe you can learn to love this university afterall) and spend a day exploring a local creek collecting water samples and looking for signs of life.

As you walk downstream, you come upon a small foot bridge you must cross

After crossing you arrive at the spot where you are to secure water samples and look for wildlife

Jackpot! You pick up some crawdaddies as they scramble around in your hands.

What would you wear to spend a day exploring a creek?
