This summer restoration professionals have been busy restoring fish and wildlife habitat near Clear Creek, a tributary of the Lewis River in the Gifford Pinchot National Forest. The Gifford Pinchot Task Force helped secure funding from Ecotrust’s Whole Watershed Restoration Initiative and Wild Fish Conservancy and partnered with the Forest Service to remove eight miles of road. These roads were strategically identified for removal because they are in a key watershed for salmon recovery and benefit elk, gray wolves, and other wildlife by expanding the unroaded area around Spencer Ridge Roadless Area by 3,000 acres.
