The Wildboy Creek project conserves 1,300 acres of forestland in the upper reaches of the Washougal River system in Skamania County, Washington (US). The Columbia Land Trust conserved the area with the goal of partnering with the Cowlitz Indian tribe to remove a 45-ft. dam that has outlived its purpose and restore the watershed for salmon and steelhead.

In the years ahead, ecologically and culturally important salmon and steelhead will be able to return to their ancient spawning grounds above the dam. Cedar waxwings, American dippers, and other birds will continue to sing their songs, and the only damming done on the river system will be by beavers.
