Canyon Creek Fish Passage
The lower 4.5 miles of Canyon Creek [link to Canyon Creek Watershed
of the Month], a major tributary to the North Fork Nooksack, are important
spawning habitat for North Fork early chinook, which are listed as threatened
with extinction under the federal Endangered Species Act. (At river mile
4.5, there is a natural waterfall that prevents further migration upstream.)
The creek is also considered a priority area for a second threatened species,
bull trout.
