Description
Poster depicts "the diversity of plants and animals in these renditions of the restored Elwha watershed, from its headwaters in the Olympic Mountains to its estuary in the Strait of Juan de Fuca." Text describes the damming of the Elwha River in the early twentieth century, the environmental consequences, and plans to restore the Elwha ecosystem and its fisheries by removal of the Elwha Dam and the Glines Canyon Dam.
