Carbon Canyon in March
by Lee Reeder
These photos were taken during a day with the Santa Ana Watershed Association Restoration Department removing Arundo donax (Giant Reed) from Carbon Canyon.
Nice day to be a cow at the head of Carbon Canyon. Mt. San Antonio is in the distance at left.
SAWA Crew member removing Arundo from Carbon Creek. We have been treating this area for more than a year. Now we are removing the biomass so we can restore native habitat.
Happy California cows.
The shale along the creek is full of interesting shapes and textures.
SAWA Crew member chopping down the Arundo. When it's dry like this machetes work better than power tools.
