Additional Information
Washington State Parks and the Mountains to Sound Greenway are partnering together on the multi-year restoration of Lake Sammamish State Park. The State Park provides important habitat for several species of salmon, many birds – including bald eagles, great blue herons, and red tailed hawks – and a wide variety of amphibians, insects and other wildlife, making this a great spot not only for recreating but for wildlife viewing opportunities as well. 

 

In order to build log structures in the stream, we need to make sure that no fish are present where we’ll be working, and next week, we’ll be making a big push along a large stretch of the Creek and the project area. As we draw down the water, we’re looking for volunteers to work alongside technicians in teams to seek out and capture any remaining fish, put them in buckets so a biologist can identify the species, and then safely return them to the Creek.
