Illabot Creek Conservation Easement
Skagit’s Illabot Creek just became more thoroughly “wild and scenic” with the purchase and signing of a voluntary conservation easement agreement between the Trust and private landowners. The Illabot Creek Conservation Easement conserves one-half mile of river shoreline and working farmland.
Illabot Creek is one of the most important tributaries of the Skagit River – extremely important for salmon production and recovery. This easement is one of several salmon recovery projects funded by the State in the Illabot watershed.
