The Marblemount Conservation Area contains a beautiful forest and a variety of aquatic habitat, including the creek in this photo. 

Marblemount Conservation area was protected in 2020. This forested property borders the Skagit River and protects about 2,900 feet of shoreline. The riparian forest contains a mix of conifer and hard wood species and provides habitat for a variety of wildlife such as Bald Eagles. The Skagit River and a side channel, which run through the property, provide excellent salmon habitat.
