Join us for the second installment of films at Hazel Blue Acres on September 8.
At this in-person SLS Special Topic Session, Loren Brokaw and Lindsey Desmul, WDFW, will tour the group around Leque Island, located between Stanwood and Camano Island. A large restoration project reintroduced the tides to Leque Island in 2019, and the site is now transitioning toward a salt marsh habitat.
During the tour, the group will walk along an elevated trail on top of a flood protection berm and will then drop down onto the marsh surface to see the new vegetation and tidal channels. If time allows, the group will walk under the highway bridge to the north side of Leque Island where another restoration project will begin construction in August. Participants will see the results of one of the first projects supported by SLS!
