Elev. = 3140 ft. Rick Dewey Deschutes National Forest March 2017 1 Berries of the fen-loving, bog huckleberry (Vaccinium uliginosum) at Government Meadow. Note the persistent sepals characteristic of this species. Government Meadow is the only project site at which V. uliginosum was detected. Acknowledgements This project was funded by a USFS R6 ISSSSP grant spanning 2016-2017. Thanks to Kevin James, MBS NF Ecology and Botany Program Manager, and Shauna Hee, North Zone (Mt. Baker and Darrington Districts) MBS NF Botanist. Special thanks to James for facilitation during the period of fieldwork, including spending a field day with the project lead at the 7080 rd. wetland and at Government Meadow. Thanks also to Sonny Paz, Snoqualmie District Wildlife Biologist, for a day of assistance with fieldwork at Government Meadow, and to the Carex Working Group for assistance in the identification of Carex flava at the Headwaters of Cascade Creek wetland. 2 Summary Sites on Mt. Baker-Snoqualmie NF that were reasonably suspected to include groundwater-fed wetlands (fens) were visited between 8/15-9/28 2006. The intent of these visits was to inventory for rare plants associated with these wetlands, and to record a coarse biophysical description of the setting. Twelve of the 18 sites visited were determined in include notable amounts of fen habitat. Five rare target species and two otherwise notable rare species accounting for eight distinct occurrences/populations at six wetlands were detected during site visits.

  • Puget Sound Salmon Habitat Assessment: Landscape Level Subwatershed Prioritization
    CONSERVATION PRIORITIES: AN ASSESSMENT OF FRESHWATER HABITAT FOR PUGET SOUND SALMON PREFACE This report entitled Conservation Priorities: An assessment of freshwater habitat for Puget Sound Salmon was prepared at the request of the Trust for Public Land (TPL) to provide a regional snapshot of Puget Sound’s most pristine, intact freshwater salmon habitat. TPL is a leading land conservation organization whose mission includes conserving land for people which often means protecting habitat critical to the health of salmon and other species. We believe the assessment can complement and enhance the work of many organizations that are striving to recover our Puget Sound salmon runs. The assessment is a synthesis of existing information and expert opinion. The report describes or attempts to draw from what is known, published and described by experts within agencies, tribes and watershed groups having direct knowledge of these ecosystems and populations. The assessment provides a priority listing and map of the most intact freshwater habitats for salmon in the Puget Sound. The prioritized list of habitats, together with the summarized information and compiled sources, can be used to help guide cost- effective conservation decision making in the near term for the benefit of salmon and encompasses the whole Puget Sound basin. Dr. Chris Frissell, of the Flathead Lake Biological Station at the University of Montana; Peter Morrison, Pacific Biodiversity Institute; Jim Kramer, natural resource consultant; and Marie Mentor, a consultant and former TPL Washington State Director, were retained to produce the assessment. This effort would not have been possible without the significant support provided by The Brainerd Foundation, the Kongsgaard-Goldman Foundation, King County, the Bullitt Foundation, and in-kind contributions from Pacific Biodiversity Institute and TPL.

  • Spring 2015 Newsletter
    SPRING 2015 SKAGIT UPDATE NEWSLETTER OF THE SKAGIT LAND TRUST Forever Wild Illabot Creek Largest Ranch on Illabot Creek Conserved Forever By Jane Zillig, Land Specalist Just east of Rockport you will find Illabot Creek, one of the most important tributaries of the Skagit River. This flourishing creek provides spawning and rearing habitat for Chinook, chum, coho and pink salmon; bulltrout and steelhead. With such a wild fish smorgasbord, it’s no surprise that one of the largest bald eagle wintering areas in the lower 48 is adjacent to Illabot Creek. Because of this ecological richness, Illabot Creek has been the focus of a variety of wildlife habitat protection and restoration projects through the decades. Recognizing the importance of this tributary, several years ago Skagit Land Trust reached out to the landowners of the largest remaining private tract in the lower Illabot watershed to propose a project that would benefit salmon habitat as well as farmland. Ken and Velma Perrigoue bought 100 acres with a half mile of frontage on Illabot Creek in 1986. They had a history of farming and ranching and this property allowed them to continue a lifestyle they loved. Over the years, they have observed cougar, bear, bobcat, deer and coyotes on their land. Woodland Park Zoo released rehabilitated and tagged bald eagles on their property. When the Trust contacted the Perrigoues, the key was finding the right tool to both protect the land for salmon habitat conservation along with supporting their ranching lifestyle. PHOTOS: THE OLD SAYING “SALMON SO THICK YOU CAN WALK ACROSS THE RIVER ON THEIR BACKS” STILL HOLDS TRUE FOR ILLABOT CREEK.
