Information

This is where some of the water collected by the watershed exits in a small stream. Notice that the stream goes underground, which is common in urbanized areas, as streams are channeled into pipes that are buried underground making it easier to develop the land. While this is convenient for development, the stream no longer functions as habitat for plants, insects, and fish. Many of these buried streams are being “daylighted”, a process of uncovering the stream and restoring its natural flow.

Your last stop on this tour is the kiosk built by the Mirror Lake Watershed Association. Walk down the path toward the Hampton Inn & Suites, the kiosk is just past the tennis courts.
