Life in the Flow
Witness the high-energy pulse of a mountain stream. Water shapes life in these vital forest corridors.

Dense coniferous canopy shades the stream, keeping water cool. High-gradient flow over rocks oxygenates the water for aquatic life.
Turbulent flow creates diverse micro-habitats. Organisms adapt to specific zones, finding food and shelter among varied rock sizes.
Listen to the constant rush of water over stones. Moss and varied substrates offer crucial hiding spots for small invertebrates.
Riparian zones are critical biological corridors. Undisturbed forests protect water quality and link diverse habitats.
