Biologists Katy Pfannenstein and Amy Horstman discuss the project that will restore Gold Creek for bull trout and other species. Here, they stand in front of Gold Creek Pond, which was a large gravel borrow pit used for construction of I-90. This pit pulls water out of Gold Creek, leaving the creek too dry and creating a passage barrier for fish during certain times of the year.
