Images from a tree planting work party on Barr Creek, a tributary of the Skykomish River near Monroe Washington. The Northshore Chapter of Trout Unlimited has an ongoing project to protect and restore the lower portions of Barr Creek so that it can be utilized by spawning salmon and steelhead, and for overwintering Coho and Steelhead Smolts. On March 11th, volunteers planted 400+ trees on the banks of Barr Creek to help prevent erosion of the streambed and to provide shade in the summer to help keep the water cool.
