Mountain Communities

For the past six years the Eagle River Watershed Council (ERWC) has been working on a 1.6 mile stretch of the Eagle River to improve the aquatic and riparian habitat. Now in the final phase of their project, ERWC removed protective cages from around Narrowleaf Cottonwood trees on April 11. The girls helped by painting the trunks with a sand paint to deter beaver predation. This project is part of their work on the Wonders of Water Journey.
