Over 30 participants joined the shortcourse Geomorphic and Ecological Fundamentals of River Restoration at Sagehen Ck Field Station near Lake Tahoe in August.  Weather conditions were ideal, and participants got wet wading in Sagehen Creek and swimming in Lake Tahoe.  They saw a wide range of completed projects as well as sites slated for restoration, and made proposals for most effective restoration approaches.  Each evening participants enjoyed discussion of the day’s adventures followed by a gourmet meal in plein air.  Next year’s shortcourse is set for 18-22 August.  Registration opens in January.
