Cle-Elum restoration - Phase 2

Big congrats and thanks to Kittitas Conservation Trust (KCT) for nearing the completion of the Phase 2 restoration project. The intent of this project was to increase floodplain and side channel connectivity, improve instream habitat, and decrease channel bed material size to more suitable ranges for spawning. To accomplish this we developed designs for stable wood structures and limited excavation at side channel inlets. It's great to see 2-years of work come to fruition and can't wait to see how things develop over time.
