Stream Wise

tip #6: minimize and plan for pathways

9/21/2023

0 Comments

 
Stream access is important to enjoy the beauty and benefits, but wise access is even more important! Prevent erosion and gullies created by straight pathways down a slope - make pathways run across contour (e.g., switchback paths), divert water runoff with water bars, and make pathway material pervious. There are many ways to make pathways functional and beautiful!
