All work was done by hand and not with the complete cooperation of the weather, but a job well done! This Community now awaits the fall salmon spawning in this rehabilitated habitat. A big thanks to Bob Florean for all his help with this project!
A fabulous job completed by Lakeview students, two youth ranger groups and Manitoulin Streams. Large and mid size boulders, spawning gravel and garbage removal was completed the week of Aug 18, 2014. All work was done by hand and not with the complete cooperation of the weather, but a job well done! This Community now awaits the fall salmon spawning in this rehabilitated habitat.

James Creek had an issue with the access to the creek being blocked by gravel/sand at the mouth of the Creek. We removed the blocked entrance and then added some boulders and rocks along the corner bend to help scour the mouth open so that migrating salmon and trout will be able to access the creek.
Site MIN 678 was 210 ft long x 28 ft high. Over the years with more storm events it was eroding away the shoreline banks with the sand covering prime spawning habitat for migrating salmonids. A now completed project, this rehabilitation anticipates the spawning of salmon and trout starting this fall with the salmon run.
