Point Reyes National Seashore protects a portion of the watershed necessary to ensure safe migration and spawning of coho salmon and steelhead trout. This protection is necessary as both species have been directly impacted by human activities and development. Healthy creeks are one step toward increasing and maintaining their population numbers. Their true hope for survival lies in changing human attitudes, behaviors, and priorities.

Completion of this unit, as a companion to your Park field trip, will enable your students to observe and understand creek habitats. Most importantly, your students will be prepared to take action in protecting their watersheds through a self-designed stewardship project.
