Stories from Lake Chelan: Opportunities to restore and steward our lake into the future.
Join the Lake Chelan Research Institute to hear geological, environmental, and human stories from the Lake Chelan Watershed, while learning about potential threats to the lake’s ecology and opportunities to restore and steward the lake into the future. With aerial and underwater photography from Cashmere’s Steven Gnam (National Geographic, Crown of the Continent), and the Lake Chelan Research Institute’s Anna Galipeau and Phil Long, this presentation provides new perspectives on the ecological treasure that is Lake Chelan. And Nate Hough-Snee is a Leavenworth, Washington-based wetland, aquatic, and riparian ecologist who researches and restores ecosystems across the Pacific Northwest. Nate is working with the Lake Chelan Research Institute as a senior scientist and as a consultant through his firm, Meadow Run Environmental. Recently Nate has increasingly focused his attention on understanding how Lake Chelan is changing. Most of Nate’s ecosystem stories from Lake Chelan are told about water, plants, and people and with enough humor to have a good time.
