Hope for a dammed stream - watching Rattlesnake Creek change

from Wild With Nature · host Shane Sater

For thousands of years, Missoula's Rattlesnake Creek supported important spawning populations of bull trout, which would move upstream from the Clark Fork River each fall. But in 1901, the Rattlesnake Creek Dam blocked the spawning fish. Over a century later, in 2020, the City of Missoula removed the now-obsolete dam. This story is about a stream coming back to life, its fish, and the Watershed Education Network - a Missoula-based nonprofit and its avid volunteers who are documenting the stream as it changes.
