Assessing the Upper Delaware: A RIVERS App Event

Join Trout Unlimited's Eastern Conservation staff as a volunteer for an important project to assess the health of the Beaverkill, Willowemoc and other tributaries in the Upper Delaware watershed.

We'll be using the RIVERS app a fast, easy and fun way to hit the stream with your smartphone in hand and photo-document areas of habitat degradation such as eroded banks, lack of tree canopy and cover, culverts, dams and other barriers to fish passage and many other impacts.

The day will start with a training and tutorial using the app at the Catskill Fly Fishing Center & Museum in Livingston Manor, NY at 9 a.m.

After training, volunteers will be assigned sections of river to assess - whether you choose to bring a fishing rod with you while you seek out sites to record is entirely up to you!
