Venue: 
Errol Heights Natural Area
Venue Details: 
Errol Heights Natural Area consists of a steep-walled canyon formed by extensive natural springs from the Portland aquifer. The springs are the headwaters to Errol Heights Creek, a tributary of Johnson Creek. Errol Heights Creek contributes a steady flow of cold water to the Johnson Creek system, which is especially important during the drier, hotter summer months. The area in the canyon was developed in the early 1950s as a trout farming operation, with three ponds created by a series of dams. The native riparian forest was disturbed and invasive species such as English ivy, Himalayan blackberry, and clematis became well established.
