Skagit Land Trust recently purchased 4.5 acres of land with over 800 feet of shoreline along the Cascade River which provides critical habitat for Spring and Summer Chinook, Bull Trout and Steelhead as well as coho, sockeye and pinks. The acquisition and clean-up of this property is funded by the Salmon Recovery Funding Board with match supported by Seattle City Light and support from Skagit Watershed Council. With this acquisition, the Trust now protects 47 acres and 2,500 feet of shoreline along the Cascade River and also stewards a nearby Nature Conservancy property.
