PAIUTE CREEK RESTORATION

Trout Unlimited partnered with Symbiotic Restoration, Keep California Beautiful, and the Honey Lake Valley Resource Conservation District to restore Paiute Creek in Susanville Ranch Park on October 13. About 30 volunteers helped with planting willows and augmenting artificial beaver dams to moderate stream flows and reduce erosion. Thanks to all who turned out!

 

MIDDLE FORK FEATHER RIVER CLEANUP

Thanks to folks that helped with cleanup of the Middle Fork of the Feather River on September 21. About 15 members and other volunteers turned out to pick up trash from the old Blairsden bridge to the highway 89 bridge. We’re happy to say there was not a huge amount of trash, but the river is even cleaner now!
