Redwood Creek

The North Bay Chapter of Trout Unlimited is sponsoring a number of workdays at Muir Beach to restore the Redwood Creek watershed to its natural state.  Redwood Creek is the southernmost watershed in North America with active Coho salmon and steelhead runs.  More than a century of landscape modifications, including road construction, have diverted the natural flow of the creek and reduced water flows in the creek and tidal lagoon.  This multi-year restoration project will involve moving a parking lot to restore the natural flow of the creek, improving related wetlands through the replanting of native plants and the construction of several ponds to provide habitat for the California red-legged frog.  The restoration is being undertaken by the Golden Gate National Parks Conservancy in partnership with the National Park Service.  Additional information can be found at    www.parksconservancy.org/our-work/trails-forever/accomplishments/redwood-creek-restoration.html 

The North Bay Chapter of Trout Unlimited hosted its most recent workday on Saturday, January 9th.  Over the course of three hours, twenty-four volunteers planted over 500 hedge nettle and blackberry plants.  If you are interested in participating in future Redwood Creek restoration projects, please contact John Lucas at 415-292-6285 or jolucas@sbcglobal.net.
