Chuck Lewis State Wildlife Area (SWA) is located along the Yampa River near Steamboat Springs. This SWA is a popular destination among anglers. Last year, work was completed to construct multiple rock structures to direct stream energy away from banks, adding bankfull bench features with coir fiber wrapped sod/willow mats, regrading vertical eroding banks, and removing transverse bars and mid-channel bars to re-shape the channel bed to appropriate dimensions. What does all of this mean? Join us for a 1.5 - 2 hour walk along the river with CPW staff who will discuss the success of this river restoration project!
