So much work has gone into the Elwha River to bring back salmon and restore this amazing habitat.

Environmental groups sue to stop 400 acres of logging in WA’s Elwha Watershed • Washington State Standard
The lawsuit argues that the state failed to study possible environmental harms of cutting the forests, which include trees that are 140 years old.

This is a devastating accident for Indian Creek and the Elwha River.

This spill is nothing short of heartbreaking for local tribes and other Washingtonians who rely on clean, healthy rivers and streams for their food and livelihoods.

The speed with which salmon have returned to the Klamath - like the Elwha - after dam removal is overwhelmingly hopeful. And in both cases thanks to decades of tireless advocacy by local Tribes.
Grateful to spend two days on the Klamath watching chinook, liberated by dam removal, return to streams from which they’d been precluded since the Titanic sank. Fish are everywhere, in numbers that stagger the mind & locations that biologists figured would take years to repopulate. Too beautiful.

The Elwha Legacy Forests Coalition essentially bought out the rights to harvest 29 acres of state forests from a logging company.

Environmental groups just sued to stop 400 acres of logging in Washington's Elwha Watershed. The Lower Elwha Klallam Tribe fought for decades to restore this river. Now state-approved logging threatens 140-year-old trees tribal members need for cedar gathering & cultural practices.

Madison Falls is a quiet moment in Olympic National Park—just a short, gentle walk leads you to a broad cascade spilling through the moss-draped forest, its steady rhythm echoing along the Elwha River.

The dam removals that get the most press tend to be superlative western ones, like the Klamath and Elwha—big rivers, big fish. For @biographic.bsky.social, I wrote about some equally vital, under-the-radar projects now restoring eastern streams, one old mill dam at a time.

"If eco-social anomie describes a societal forgetting, dam removal achieves the opposite—a collective remembering that cures our amnesia and unshifts our baselines."

Tens of thousands of small barriers hamper fish recovery in the northeastern United States. But while the demolition of big dams out west gets the most attention, a similar revolution is revitalizing ...

This is horrifying and yet another reminder of why we can't abandon fossil fuels quickly enough.

The Elwha River is a triumph of restoration, with salmon returning after over a century's absence since major dam removals 12 years ago. The spill is on a tributary 1.5 miles from the river's main stem.
A fuel tanker crashed off Highway 101 on Friday and began leaking fuel into a major tributary for salmon, trout and the water supply for Port Angeles. It's a pretty devastating spill.
