Watershed Restoration Stewardship
Bridge

This project of approximately 200 trees and shrubs is located on Lost Creek. The Theiss project was started to bring a habitat back for the birds and reduce the amount of blackberries. The Theiss project lies next to Lost Creek in the Middle Fork of the Willamette Watershed. In preparation for the site, blackberries were grubbed from the area.
