M'Chigeeng Creek
We had a partly rainy week in M’Chigeeng as we embarked on another year of restoration work on M’Chigeeng Creek. We had Lakeview School’s Grade 8 students and the Sudbury District Stewardship Rangers out helping conduct a stream clean up, planting trees and providing spawning gravel and small boulders along the creek to provide habitat for spawning salmon and rainbow trout.
The students and our crews were all exhausted after a few days of challenging physical work. Great Work!
Total accomplishments include:
•30 yards (2 full dump trucks) of gravel & cobble mixture installed
• 452 linear meters restored/protected
• 2670m2 of fish habitats/spawning grounds protected
• 300 trees planted
•4 wing deflectors installed
•Removal of several trees which were impeding passage of fish migration
