Restore an 8,000 foot reach of Nevada Creek to improve stream bank stability and instream and riparian habitat benefiting populations of westslope cutthroat trout and bull trout. Project will expand previously successful methods to construct the proper creek pattern, profile and dimensions while incorporating a riparian revegetation and grazing management plan which will address bank erosion, instream complexity and riparian area habitat connection.
