Notes from the Field Video: A Day at Powell Creek & Middle Ohop

We are taking our Notes from the Field blog virtual! Our Stewardship staff spend most of their week outside and in nature, tasked with managing and restoring over 7,500 acres of conservation lands from Mount Rainier to the Nisqually Delta. Here, Stewardship Assistant Courtney Murphy gives us a peek into her workday out in the field.

See the Nisqually River floodplain, where the Land Trust, Nisqually Indian Tribe, students, and volunteers are planting 12,350 native trees and shrubs on this site alone. Then visit Ohop Creek, a main tributary to the Nisqually River and the site of one of the largest restoration projects in the Pacific Northwest!

Courtney took these video clips on May 1, 2020 on properties at our Powell Creek Protected Area and our Ohop Creek Protected Area.
