 A cutbank along Coyote Creek is located near the Flying 
      Tigers model airplane park in Morgan Hill. Erosion of the cutbank provides 
      gravel for the stream bed. Exposures in the cutbank reveal that in the past 
      the entire floodplain of Coyote Creek was an alluvial fan.  Before the construction 
	  of the massive Anderson Sam upstream from the valley along Highway 101 near 
	  Morgan Hill was prone to episodic floods and debris flows.
