Coho caught spawning in Crystal Springs

Coho spawning in Crystal Springs Creek, downstream from campus, were caught on for the first time in decades, according to Zac Perry, ’s canyon restoration specialist. Although there have been sightings of native salmon and steelhead in the canyon, the fish have not been spied in flagrante delicto until now.

This is a timely occurrence, as Portland is marking the completion of the Westmoreland Park Ecosystem Restoration project on Saturday. The project, which began in May 2012, is a joint effort to remove barriers to fish passage—and it is succeeding in leaps and bounds!

The restoration of canyon is a reflection of the commitment and personnel that the college has made to protect and improve the functions of the last open waterway in the city of Portland, which is now seeing regular visits by both endangered and protected native species seeking refuge in our beautiful headwater forest.
