As part of the Riparian Walks program, funded by the GBCMA, we’ve been taking geotagged photos of our local waterways to get snapshots of their overall health and features. These photos are visible to the public, and can be found by zooming in to locations along the Hughes and Seven Creeks, or clicking this link.
