This is the earliest existing “Rachel at OWC” picture. It was my third day on the job, April 24, 2024. Sofie and I had a booth at the Stavely career fair teaching fifth graders about environmental science! I remember feeling very silly because I was about 15 hours into my environmental science career. I also really enjoyed my first trip to Stavely , because we stopped at the bakery in Fort Macleod en route. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/55775efbe4b02c5614691727/1775049519327-3GLEFBP59GMWU7DKTZBU/03.jpg Blog Posts - Farewell, Rachel! May 2024. This was pretty much exactly one month in. To this day I remember it as one of the best programs we ever did. Sofie and I drove up Willow Valley Road on a beautiful spring day, stopping to look at mountain bluebirds. She demonstrated how we monitor creek health by evaluating the invertebrates that live in the streambed, and then I got to explain each and every insect I found to an incredibly willing-to-learn group of people, the Livingstone Landowners Group. Magical! https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/55775efbe4b02c5614691727/1775049791464-KV8O1AAHUOSPZTIW239P/04.jpg Blog Posts - Farewell, Rachel! July 2024. Backcountry outreach: it is fun, and you’re always in a beautiful place, but oh man is the sun ever powerful at high altitudes in July. Phew. This is how we spent our summer Fridays and Saturdays in 2024 and 2025; on some days, we talked to more than a hundred people, and on some days we were happy to get to a dozen. This picture was taken at Ceasars Flats, a staging area along Dutch Creek. I am consistently amazed, whenever we come here for summer outreach, that anyone manages to haul a camper or RV up the Dutch Creek Road when the road is as bumpy as it is. True grit (and gritted teeth, I am sure). https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/55775efbe4b02c5614691727/1775049796973-RFH5BXN8Q8PYPDCBKWIL/05.jpg Blog Posts - Farewell, Rachel! This is from my Canadian Aquatic Biomonitoring Network (CABIN) sampling training in August 2024. At the end of a CABIN sample, you carry out the 100 pebble count, which is when you randomly pick up 100 pebbles from the creek bed and measure them. Many people find this tedious, especially at the end of a long day, but it’s one of my favourite parts. So many cool rocks! We stayed at the University of Lethbridge’s West Castle field station for this course, which was absolutely magical. I saw my first Calliope hummingbird on this trip! https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/55775efbe4b02c5614691727/1775049832933-8A2XDLK86FI7IX9X3EUU/07.jpg Blog Posts - Farewell, Rachel! August 2024. I have a very long-standing habit of stopping to look at every cool plant I see (and chasing after every bumble bee, and pulling over for cool birds). I used to worry that I was sometimes hampering the field team, because this slows us down when we are trying to get somewhere. However, I quickly discovered that this is called “place-based learning,” and it’s good for you. Hooray! This was also at the West Castle field station. You can’t see it, but there was a bumble bee on the aster. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/55775efbe4b02c5614691727/1775049798702-596I6368MSWENB7ZE2M3/06.jpg Blog Posts - Farewell, Rachel! August 2024. A video clip of these very caddisflies became part of OWC’s most popular TikTok video, which got something like 60,000 views, and many encouraging comments. Through this, I learned that some folks call caddisflies ‘periwinkles’. The more you know. The caddisflies in the Castle park are really unbeatable thanks to all the tiny colourful rocks they use to make their cases. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/55775efbe4b02c5614691727/1775049895287-0MO1Y7M400XJLNHF9TJ9/08.jpg Blog Posts - Farewell, Rachel! September 2024. There can be no mention of CABIN sampling without a moment to highlight processing the benthic sample. You do a sample of a creek bed by kicking up the sediment and catching it in a net; then a lucky soul gets to pick through the sediment to remove rocks, fish, twigs, and other unnecessary objects. Pictured: Cody (an amazing volunteer) bringing me more rinse water for a particularly silty sample. Probably something like 30 hours of my life have been spent cross-legged on the ground picking through a benthic sample. Wouldn’t trade it for anything. This was Burton Creek, on the western edge of the Porcupine Hills Public Land Use Zone. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/55775efbe4b02c5614691727/1775049852525-Q2IPH08ZLKE8VGKAK5PS/09.jpg Blog Posts - Farewell, Rachel! September 2024. This is the less glamorous side of CABIN sampling: decontamination. Most of our sites are suspected or confirmed whirling disease zones, and so, after our gear gets wet or muddy, we need to clean it and then soak it in a disinfectant solution. For every epic photo you see of us in the backcountry, knee-deep in a creek, there is a corresponding decontamination scene where everything gets taken apart and deconned (as we say in the business). Always remember to clean, drain, and dry! https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/55775efbe4b02c5614691727/1775049879402-862VJ67HDZXAJCZN21AU/10.jpg Blog Posts - Farewell, Rachel! September 2024. Camping at Maycroft Provincial Recreation Area. We sampled a bunch of sites on and around the Waldron and got to stay here for a few nights (strongly recommend, if you’ve never been). I remember Sofie making this bean-cheese-rice skillet and eating all the leftovers straight out of the pan. A really incredible time. This was also one of the scruffiest times in my hair growth. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/55775efbe4b02c5614691727/1775049923902-DQS4T0BSXITV4IZPV9C8/11.jpg Blog Posts - Farewell, Rachel! October 2024. This was our most rugged CABIN site. Yarrow Creek, way up in the Castle Wildland park, almost at the Waterton park boundary. Here I am measuring the steepest slope we ever recorded at a CABIN site (I can’t even reach the height measurement on the survey rod), looking confused, having apparently lost my wader belt. In the background is Maria (another WSA)—spot the little orange dot that is a hi-vis toque. The hike in and out of this site was too steep and bumpy for our wagon, so we had to abandon it and haul in the gear by hand. The water temperature was literally 1 degree Celsius. A strong candidate for my favourite day of this job. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/55775efbe4b02c5614691727/1775049925071-A2RCWJZWYNQRP01AQLKR/12.jpg Blog Posts - Farewell, Rachel! November 2024. Last planting day of the year (and the ground was more than a little frozen at this point). We’re down in the coulees of the Belly River, and our planting site was right on the shore. This is a great shot of the 2024 OWC field team: Kallie, Deb, Maria, Sofie, and me. Something like 75% of our field pictures wouldn’t exist if not for Kallie’s dedication to the group selfie. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/55775efbe4b02c5614691727/1775049955852-YIGNA3NQKR5T853D8NDJ/13.jpg Blog Posts - Farewell, Rachel! February 2025. Syncline-Castle Trails Association put on a family event, and the snow was PERFECT snowman texture. I think I named this bear Bearimy. (I promise that we did also set up a tent and do some outreach). We’re in the Castle park here, at Syncline South staging area. A great place to cross-country ski when there’s enough snow! https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/55775efbe4b02c5614691727/1775049956008-I6X7826XUW9OOII4ZGKT/14.jpg Blog Posts - Farewell, Rachel! April 2025. Seedy Saturday at the Lethbridge Public Library. This is the beginning of my pollinator-related content. Over the winter, I’d assembled a pollinator display box, and here I am nerding out about bumble bees. My educational background in biodiversity is very insect-focused, so I was thrilled to work on OWC’s bumble bee project. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/55775efbe4b02c5614691727/1775050018908-77WGB0P527GBKZ0HG7SW/15.jpg Blog Posts - Farewell, Rachel! Mid April 2025! First planting day of the year! Way up by Chain Lakes. We were planting willows all around a newly made dugout, and over the course of the day all this snow got mixed into the clay soil and everyone got covered in mud. I had SO MUCH FUN and then the next day I also had so much fun power washing all of the shovels, and everyone’s work gloves, and my boots. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/55775efbe4b02c5614691727/1775049985535-EZAZUKCD8GOR86OLUIGP/16.jpg Blog Posts - Farewell, Rachel! May 2025. Kallie, Deb, and I planted potted willows on the Belly River with Ninna Piiksii and one brave volunteer. This was the first really hot day of the year, and we got sillier as the afternoon went on. I’m sure you can’t tell. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/55775efbe4b02c5614691727/1775050006584-C84Y2GF0A0WK5N72AL10/17.jpg Blog Posts - Farewell, Rachel! May 2025, planting a pollinator garden in Lethbridge. Deb meticulously planned out which plants would go where. Shoutout to Kallie for taking this picture—one of the cutest candids ever! https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/55775efbe4b02c5614691727/1775050036670-4A9QWZY5KXSNQEO9OCCO/18.jpg Blog Posts - Farewell, Rachel! June 2025, planting a community pollinator garden in Claresholm. This was Chantel’s third or fourth day on the job as a WSA, and it was a long one. Here we are acting as helpful weights to keep our prepped site from blowing away in the wind before the soil arrives. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/55775efbe4b02c5614691727/1775050027970-Y9OXDT39QWR5QX9QTJQC/19.jpg Blog Posts - Farewell, Rachel! July 2025. Scouting potential sites for CABIN sampling. We have learned, over much trial and error, that if a map shows that there’s a creek, it doesn’t mean there’s water there now. Ground truth everything! This was along highway 22, just north of Chain Lakes. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/55775efbe4b02c5614691727/1775050066185-21M8NB8W1NZSKQYN341M/20.jpg Blog Posts - Farewell, Rachel! Chantel and me at Open Farm Days, August 2025, in Lethbridge. We had just built the build-your-own-garden activity you see on the table, which we dubbed ‘Little House on the Prairie”. You may also notice that every single piece of paper on this table is weighed down by nature’s paperweight, the rock. You learn a thing or two after chasing your handouts across the parking lot. This photo also marks the debut of my pink-tinted glasses, which are in every single subsequent photo. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/55775efbe4b02c5614691727/1775050051052-5CM7M0W3W30EH5KWI4AE/21.jpg Blog Posts - Farewell, Rachel! August 2025, CABIN season, near Chain Lakes. An INCREDIBLE lunch spot. Anyone who has ever worked a field day with me knows my love for sandwiches. In the valley behind me is Willow Creek. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/55775efbe4b02c5614691727/1775050064491-ZJB1FX8PN9QG0PAGLM5N/22.jpg Blog Posts - Farewell, Rachel! Camping at Chain Lakes between CABIN sites with Chantel and Sofie. This was such an awesome trip. Yes, I specifically chose this photo of Bananagrams because I won that round. No, I certainly did not win every round. The competition is pretty steep with this crew. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/55775efbe4b02c5614691727/1775050110684-Q3T6Q2D9Y7XT7NNFREWX/23.jpg Blog Posts - Farewell, Rachel! September 2025. This is a stage in our evolving gear-carrying strategy. This year, we sampled a lot of creeks that had pretty long hikes in, over rough-ish terrain. We moved from our previous ‘put everything in the wagon’ strategy to a more flexible approach where we loaded our gear into packs and carried the big stuff by hand. This only resulted in about three instances of forgetting a sample jar and having to send a runner back to the truck. If you are considering a career in environmental science, especially aquatics: make sure you like carrying stuff! https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/55775efbe4b02c5614691727/1775050074527-YSQTMVYE7NZP2W37G3YO/24.jpg Blog Posts - Farewell, Rachel! September 2025. Tennessee creek. THE siltiest sample we have ever pulled out of a creek bed. We actually wrote an apology note to our taxonomist (the folks in the lab that do the hard work of identifying our specimens) and tucked it into the sample jar with the bugs. Prairie creeks are just built different. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/55775efbe4b02c5614691727/1775050085638-7WPPY1043DCZBQOWS8RT/25.jpg Blog Posts - Farewell, Rachel! December 2025. We were invited to display our bumble bee materials, but we had to make our booth winter-themed. Chantel and I cut out these beautiful paper snowflakes. Adorable! https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/55775efbe4b02c5614691727/1775050091544-JUO57PZPUZ0X2NOP9V9Q/26.jpeg Blog Posts - Farewell, Rachel! 2025 OWC holiday get-together.

March 2026. Bumble Bee-ginners at the public library in Lethbridge. Chantel and I planned this event to feel like a lab session at university, but without a quiz at the end. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/55775efbe4b02c5614691727/1775050139258-JV7OKJP0FJRYJ7ZDUFWQ/28b.jpg Blog Posts - Farewell, Rachel!

Rough fescue is a native perennial grass that makes up a major component of fescue grassland ecosystems. It is excellent forage for livestock, especially in the winter: unlike many grasses, the leaves retain protein and nutrient content after the plant is dormant. It is also an important source of forage for wildlife, including mule deer, elk, and bighorn sheep. Photo by Jon Martin/OWC.

General anatomy of a female, non-cuckoo bumble bee. Females of the subgenus Psithyrus (cuckoo bumble bees) and all males differ in that they lack a corbicula (pollen-carrying structure). Male bumble bees differ in that they have an 7th tergite (abdominal segment), giving their abdomen in general a longer and often pointier appearance. Males also have an additional segment to their antennae, which in some species gives the appearance of longer antennae. Tergites are abbreviated as T1-7 in the guide.

In early summer, she incubates her larvae and forages. In mid summer, she incubates her eggs, and her workers (shown by the smaller bees) forage. In late summer/fall, she lays eggs that hatch into reproductive females (fall queens) and males, who mate with individuals from other hives. In winter, the mated fall queens spend the season underground in a reduced metabolic state called diapause.

Male bumble bees are smaller than queens, although they have an additional abdominal segment (7 rather than 6). They have narrower legs as they do not have pollen-carrying baskets. They also lack stingers.

The bumble bee life cycle is different from their cousins, the honey bees, because the bumble bee nest is annual (lasting only one year), and the honey bee nest is perennial (lasting multiple years). Honey bee colonies overwinter as a whole, including the queen and workers. They eat their stored up honey reserves to survive. Bumble bees do not make or store large quantities of honey (they make a little, for rainy days), because they do not need to feed a whole colony for the winter. The overwintering bumble bee queens survive thanks to their insulation under the ground and their bodies’ built-up energy reserves. Honey bees, although an important domestic animal, are not native to North America. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/55775efbe4b02c5614691727/a063bf53-d94b-4206-917d-49beb2ebb01e/banner+%281%29.jpg Blog Posts - Bumble Bees in Winter - Make it stand out Banner image: “Dreaming of crocuses.” Original watercolour by Rachel Morris, 2025. https://oldmanwatershed.ca/blog-posts/2025/2/3/owccoalfaq2025 monthly 0.5 2025-02-11 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/55775efbe4b02c5614691727/65746239-9ec4-4a81-9d76-8ba62870a224/IMG_8093Proc2_1.jpg Blog Posts - Frequently Asked Questions about Coal Mining - Make it stand out Photo by Jon Martin/Oldman Watershed Council. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/55775efbe4b02c5614691727/e7991e6b-8718-45be-a604-ba7a3ee5cb30/IMG_8994Proc2.jpg Blog Posts - Frequently Asked Questions about Coal Mining - Make it stand out Photo by Jon Martin/Oldman Watershed Council. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/55775efbe4b02c5614691727/f0e004ff-373b-42de-b4a3-d3af305bbac2/IMG_9346-Enhanced-NRProc2.jpg Blog Posts - Frequently Asked Questions about Coal Mining - Make it stand out Photo by Jon Martin/Oldman Watershed Council. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/55775efbe4b02c5614691727/49a36118-d2cf-4a41-90e6-0ec992964657/IMG_9216-Enhanced-NRProc2.jpg Blog Posts - Frequently Asked Questions about Coal Mining - Make it stand out Photo by Jon Martin/Oldman Watershed Council. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/55775efbe4b02c5614691727/b7cdbfc3-61c4-4bc6-becd-d5621378ec14/IMG_9474Proc2.jpg Blog Posts - Frequently Asked Questions about Coal Mining - Make it stand out Photo by Jon Martin/Oldman Watershed Council. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/55775efbe4b02c5614691727/f00e7fa4-c65d-426a-99de-a793ba1badcf/IMG_9110-Enhanced-NRProc2.jpg Blog Posts - Frequently Asked Questions about Coal Mining - Make it stand out Photo by Jon Martin/Oldman Watershed Council. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/55775efbe4b02c5614691727/310f1cde-3e0c-442c-9aff-ff12e1c7f537/IMG_9006Proc2.jpg Blog Posts - Frequently Asked Questions about Coal Mining - Make it stand out Photo by Jon Martin/Oldman Watershed Council. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/55775efbe4b02c5614691727/a73b36c7-c9c1-413f-bfa2-33c454742fa0/P1055730Proc2.jpg Blog Posts - Frequently Asked Questions about Coal Mining - Make it stand out Photo by Jon Martin/Oldman Watershed Council. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/55775efbe4b02c5614691727/b42adc81-9239-4343-a3d5-1b711058cd5f/P1066065Proc2.jpg Blog Posts - Frequently Asked Questions about Coal Mining - Make it stand out Photo by Jon Martin/Oldman Watershed Council. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/55775efbe4b02c5614691727/71956918-3d00-446a-8dc7-573973c0c7c2/IMG_8893-Enhanced-NRProc2.jpg Blog Posts - Frequently Asked Questions about Coal Mining - Make it stand out Photo by Jon Martin/Oldman Watershed Council. https://oldmanwatershed.ca/blog-posts/2025/1/24/natural-infrastructure-101 monthly 0.5 2026-01-23 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/55775efbe4b02c5614691727/5c3735d6-7a49-4d42-a277-e855ebb00b0c/DAAW+%287%29.png Blog Posts - Natural Infrastructure 101 - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/55775efbe4b02c5614691727/536a77f8-880e-4ff5-8e82-e8402f55e363/DAAW+%283%29.png Blog Posts - Natural Infrastructure 101 - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/55775efbe4b02c5614691727/650f3bcb-4282-44d9-897e-322b04537752/DAAW+%288%29.png Blog Posts - Natural Infrastructure 101 - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/55775efbe4b02c5614691727/a4992704-a4b4-4b0f-a326-bfba9d5ed67b/Types+of+Infrastructure+%284%29+%281%29.png Blog Posts - Natural Infrastructure 101 - Make it stand out Four types of infrastructure: natural, green, hybrid, and grey.

Freshwater permeates the soil and accumulates in underground cracks and spaces. This infiltration process may span from a few minutes to several years, varying with the soil composition. Groundwater can be confined, isolated within specific layers, or unconfined, mingling freely with surface water. It is recharged through the water cycle and contributes to lakes, wetlands, rivers, and springs, sustaining diverse ecosystems.

Farewell to our 2021 Outreach Assistants - Make it stand out SYDNEY: This photo was taken at Chinook Lake and it’s my favorite because it describes the group perfectly! I told everyone to stand there so I could take a picture, and Jessica was expecting everyone to make a silly face, and it makes me laugh every time! It sums up our summer pretty well. This day was also really fun while we collected garbage around various parts of the Crowsnest Pass. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/55775efbe4b02c5614691727/1631049776278-TEQ69PQCWGVAJO7Z3TKH/7+-+Brandon.JPG Blog Posts - Farewell to our 2021 Outreach Assistants - Make it stand out BRANDON: This was taken facing the Beehive Natural Area.

We were near Livingstone Falls on a 8:00pm wander by the creek, the four of us jumping along rocks. The whole area is composed of giant slabs of rock, and the clouds were bringing in a storm that passed later that night, leaving perfect gaps for the golden sun to shine through. I turned around and shouted “don’t move!” when I saw Brandon admiring the sky before snapping the photo. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/55775efbe4b02c5614691727/1631050091609-32IZ4T6CJ53Q2TJS05ZD/7+-+Randy.jpg Blog Posts - Farewell to our 2021 Outreach Assistants - Make it stand out RANDY: This photo was taken after we did some swimming at the Oldman River Reservoir. On our return we saw this beautiful sunset just by our campsite. We pulled over onto an approach and snapped some pictures.

Counter-clockwise from top left: First, a deep hole is made using a sledgehammer and planting bar. A willow stake is inserted and gently tamped into the hole. The hole is filled and packed to ensure good soil contact with the willow. Finally, the top of the willow stake is trimmed so that only 4-5 inches remain above ground. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/55775efbe4b02c5614691727/1604512312982-RG8FZORQ6L0OUD2YHQON/bioengineering+techniques.png Blog Posts - Headwaters Restoration (Part 3/3): Bioengineering Various bioengineering methods have been developed to address different issues, from steep banks to poor drainage to lack of shade.

These fascines installed at Beaver Creek in June had already grown shoots and leaves when we revisited in August! https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/55775efbe4b02c5614691727/1604512710439-YB2Y15NVVGSPBIBX548Y/50471569518_d214512b45_c.jpg Blog Posts - Headwaters Restoration (Part 3/3): Bioengineering At Beaver Creek, coarse woody debris added to our restoration site shelters the willows, captures sediment, and provides nutrients as it decomposes. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/55775efbe4b02c5614691727/1604512733606-DW1U3ZL4WPGDGD4GSDCQ/lunch.jpg Blog Posts - Headwaters Restoration (Part 3/3): Bioengineering Nice weather and a delicious, locally-sourced lunch make for a great day!

Rough and loose treatment decompacts soils and sets the stage for restoration.

Above it, on the slope, repeated OHV traffic has created numerous trails that have become compacted due to heavy use. Machinery was used to “rough and loose” these nondesignated trails, being careful not to disturb the living vegetation.

While this may look destructive, it’s actually an important step to prepare the compacted, bare ground for restoration. The operator started at the farthest end of the trail and worked backwards so as not to re-compact the loosened substrate with his machine.

You can see the difference between the compacted ground (in the foreground), and the segment of nondesignated trail after “rough and loose” treatment had been applied (behind the rail). Unless the soil is loosened to allow roots and water to infiltrate, restoration cannot be successful.

It is a popular random camping and quadding area with seasonal livestock grazing. Beaver Creek also contains westslope cutthroat trout. The Government of Alberta has been working to designate appropriate trails and bridges under the Livingstone-Porcupine Hills Recreation Management Plan, and asked OWC and Cows and Fish whether we might allocate some of our grant resources to assist with restoring sites along Beaver Creek.

It was a lovely, sunny day! We carried bear spray along with a GPS, camera, notebook, and a map of the designated trails. While there were a couple of bridges crossing the creek, we saw numerous undesignated trails and fords. The creek itself was full of green algae at the time. We noted several places where the creek had widened due to illegal fording, and where sediment was being funneled along trails straight into the creek. It was also interesting to see that the creek becomes subterranean at one point, and re-emerges above ground further downstream. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/55775efbe4b02c5614691727/1595282488043-VKUPWW3E1CGVPYAR4ZY4/Blog_RestorationPlan.png Blog Posts - Headwaters Restoration (Part 1/3): Behind-the-Scenes Excerpts from OWC and Cows and Fish’s 2019 Proposed Riparian Restoration Work Plan for Beaver Creek, which was submitted to and approved by Government of Alberta staff. The plan outlined restoration to be completed at 7 sites along Beaver Creek, including decompacting (“rough and loose”) and revegetating nondesignated trails, installing sediment control, planting willows, and installing signs and hitching rails. Due to early winter weather, the actual work was postponed to 2020. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/55775efbe4b02c5614691727/1596134702250-QFMLOI2XUMTDA29FF4DC/DFO%2BGOA.png Blog Posts - Headwaters Restoration (Part 1/3): Behind-the-Scenes The Beaver Creek Restoration Project was funded in part by the Habitat Stewardship Program for Aquatic Species at Risk (Fisheries and Oceans Canada) and the Watershed Resiliency and Restoration Program (Alberta Environment and Parks).

We all depend on the watershed for clean, clear drinking water and we can all take actions for better sustainability. It’s up to us to make a difference now before drastic measures need to be taken. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/55775efbe4b02c5614691727/1504633095156-SDZGDCEZ8IXV2XQALQM4/Rob7.png Blog Posts - That's All, Folks! - Rob: If we ever want to have a healthy, resilient watershed we need to bring other people up, not put them down. Every positive action we have on the watershed is important, and we all need to support one another in our common goal of maintaining and restoring our wild spaces in the Oldman Watershed. Even if we disagree on how to get there, I think we all want the same thing: a healthy watershed that will support both the people and ecosystems that depend on it. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/55775efbe4b02c5614691727/1504633860538-GHXSPR607RBA40X7H6MZ/34850590352_653a6baf55_z.jpg Blog Posts - That's All, Folks! https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/55775efbe4b02c5614691727/1504633860631-40PI8OVZKN8MH6UG1HRT/35994632200_e52fbfde50_z.jpg Blog Posts - That's All, Folks! https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/55775efbe4b02c5614691727/1504633861149-6OJDXAE4CL4A2OJPSG9R/The+crew+out+for+a+walk+early+in+the+summer.jpg Blog Posts - That's All, Folks! https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/55775efbe4b02c5614691727/1504634157185-ED2NAYRD2TMHVWM4OJZ7/grass.jpg Blog Posts - That's All, Folks! https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/55775efbe4b02c5614691727/1504634341516-N9EJG0R01V9QPHV3QEWE/33784536163_42665af9a2_z.jpg Blog Posts - That's All, Folks! https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/55775efbe4b02c5614691727/1504634399308-PSQ1EHZ4DKRALGG228PV/36017559352_ea40dbdaa7_z.jpg Blog Posts - That's All, Folks! https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/55775efbe4b02c5614691727/1504634709583-F1T8Y8MSXIPDA82SU2TX/35316877711_3ab3beb228_z.jpg Blog Posts - That's All, Folks! https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/55775efbe4b02c5614691727/1504634709833-W2M3HY18OU6610N7TK5C/35774042294_f431de8c6a_z.jpg Blog Posts - That's All, Folks! https://oldmanwatershed.ca/blog-posts/2017/8/31/en-garde-protecting-riparian-zones monthly 0.5 2017-09-01 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/55775efbe4b02c5614691727/1504198753152-1EK4RY3MHQKGBL1P26XL/Wildlife+Friendly+fencing.PNG Blog Posts - En Garde!

As Whirling Disease has become a more prominent issue this past spring, new signs have been posted. These signs give information and warn anglers and boaters to clean drain dry their equipment after they enjoy the water.

Only gas/propane stoves and fire pits are allowed. It’s important to note that Crown land and Public Land Use Zones can vary in these rulings. The penalty for having open fires in these conditions include fines up to $25,000 and up to 12 months in prison.

These signs have been put in place as a visual reminder to hikers, bikers, quadders, dirt bikers, and all other backcountry users to use a bridge instead of fording the water. The silhouettes of Westslope Cutthroat Trout remind people that even the smallest habitat change can have detrimental effects on this threatened species. Steer clear and help to protect our fish! For more information on sedimentation in fish habitat check out this link. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/55775efbe4b02c5614691727/1503508904634-UY8G7YR7HH39ZVLDC8PC/04+thankyoubridge.jpg Blog Posts - Signs of the Times - Thank you for using the bridge If you see this sign, you most likely crossed a creek using a bridge. THANK YOU! When bridges are in place, it’s important to use them because it keeps the fish happy (and alive!) and it makes everyone downstream happy. Clean water upstream means clean water downstream in our homes and backyards. Together with Cows and Fish and the Junior Forest Rangers, we recently installed some ‘Steer Clear’ and ‘Thank you for using the bridge’ signs on Gold Creek. If you aren’t able to see them for yourself, check them out on Flickr. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/55775efbe4b02c5614691727/1503526324008-1FD4Q456XGFO3MCPM2O1/do+not+enter.jpg Blog Posts - Signs of the Times - Reclamation Area These are red and white signs indicating that work has been done in the area to help with regrowth and restoration.

They may be red and white or blue and green. Most people think this number is for poachers only, but in fact it can be used to report any land use misconduct - whether it's a poacher or a person abusing public land with garbage or driving up and down creeks. Use this phone number and keep our public lands clean and safe!

This sign serves as a reminder to backcountry users to stick to trails and clean their equipment after each use to help stop the spread of invasive species. When riding, plants will get stuck on equipment; these pieces of vegetation can hold seeds and if not cleaned, they can spread invasive species through public lands or back to the user’s own house and property. https://oldmanwatershed.ca/blog-posts/2017/8/23/friends-help-keep-lethbridge-river-valley-beautiful monthly 0.5 2017-08-24 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/55775efbe4b02c5614691727/1503511329535-PONCVC6EYWIYBMDS66CK/Friends+of+-+Coulee+Clean-Up+2017+-+Coreen%2C+Avery%2C+Becky%2C+Curtis%2C+Ken.JPG Blog Posts - Friends help keep Lethbridge river valley beautiful - #SAWC17 Friends of Helen Schuler Nature Centre Society Volunteers participating in Coulee Clean-Up https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/55775efbe4b02c5614691727/1503596377213-CU8Y5O34PNEA9G398YRK/CCUP+2017+-+Earth+Day+Launch+-+photo+by+Lisa+Lambert.jpg Blog Posts - Friends help keep Lethbridge river valley beautiful - #SAWC17 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/55775efbe4b02c5614691727/1503596415002-RZ3QIYZ9JALX139UM1R3/IMG_4322.JPG Blog Posts - Friends help keep Lethbridge river valley beautiful - #SAWC17 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/55775efbe4b02c5614691727/1503596272492-YYQ6AKNE3R63SS8VNYC8/CCU201721.JPG Blog Posts - Friends help keep Lethbridge river valley beautiful - #SAWC17 https://oldmanwatershed.ca/blog-posts/2017/8/15/staking-out-the-backcountry monthly 0.5 2019-04-15 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/55775efbe4b02c5614691727/1502827467457-10074ZPU46ATQYL855EZ/image-asset.jpeg Blog Posts - Staking Out the Backcountry Caesar’s Flats following some TLC by volunteers in 2016.

The map on the left shows the current situation: Most of the Prairies is shaded blue (meaning 10 or fewer days when the temperature tops 30 C) with only Palliser’s Triangle in the light-green or yellow zones (20 to 25 days of +30 C). On the right is the prediction for the years after 2050 if there isn’t a reduction in greenhouse gases — with 30 to 45 days of scorching hot weather in a typical summer. Source: Alberta Farmer.

The Oldman Reservoir's new sandy appearance indicates a low water supply throughout the Oldman watershed. Signs of drought have persisted for the third consecutive year, with prolonged periods without significant rain and snowfall contributing to low water levels. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/55775efbe4b02c5614691727/d293d7cc-faa9-4592-8543-754862b1e8b5/Screenshot+2024-01-18+at+2.22.37%E2%80%AFPM.png abwater.ca - Make it stand out Blog 3: Sharing the Shortage: A Collaborative Approach to Water Management Human actions have consequences for the broader environment—this sentiment is not new. Consider drought as an example: while drought is a natural phenomenon in Southern Alberta, human activities can intensify its impacts beyond what would occur under natural conditions. In this blog, we will explore the effects of drought on plants and animals, examine how human activities influence these conditions, and highlight practical solutions to address drought concerns through natural infrastructure. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/55775efbe4b02c5614691727/96b9215b-d47b-4a8d-942c-b2b95b6659c3/Screenshot+2024-03-04+at+10.45.55%E2%80%AFAM.png abwater.ca - Make it stand out Blog 5: Well, what about groundwater? The challenges of the ongoing drought raise important questions about groundwater levels. Groundwater, invisible until it surfaces or is accessed via a well, presents a significant challenge in quantification compared to surface water. This concealed water plays a crucial role in the water cycle, contributing to stream flows and lake levels, and serves as a vital water supply in Alberta. Despite its importance, the characteristics of groundwater in southern Alberta are complex and not fully understood. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/55775efbe4b02c5614691727/40fa25c6-0f59-494e-b3e5-d47c66995112/Screenshot+2024-11-15+at+10.58.01.png abwater.ca - Make it stand out Blog 8: Fall 2024 Drought Update: How Did We Fare? The weather has been all over the place since we last checked the forecast for our watershed in our May blog. If you think we had more rain this year than the last one, you are right! In addition to more precipitation, two Water Sharing Agreements were activated this season in the Oldman watershed to get us through the drought; both factors have been critical to supporting our water supply and ensuring nobody has to go without water. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/55775efbe4b02c5614691727/545d3a83-f471-4872-af49-55e3c8500888/Screenshot+2023-12-13+at+8.58.01%E2%80%AFAM.png abwater.ca - Make it stand out Blog 2: Actions and Consequences of Drought in the Watershed Human actions have consequences for the broader environment—this sentiment is not new.
