Skagit Land Trust has been working for several years with its partners in the Skagit Watershed Council to protect significant areas of salmon habitat along the middle reaches of the Skagit River. The Grandy Creek Conservation Area is the first fruit of our joint endeavors.
Grandy Creek is an excellent fishing site. It is home to salmon and steelhead, as well as beaver, raptors, and songbirds. One of our main goals here is to restore the riparian areas to provide large woody debris for fish spawning habitat in the creek and river.
The Land Trust purchased this property in 2003 with assistance from the Salmon Recovery Funding Board.
