Bolin Creek & Bolin Forest
For All of Us
Bolin Creek provides a home for an amazing diversity of creatures, including the rare four toed salamander, both in its waters and in the riparian buffer surrounding it. This stream also feeds into Jordan Lake, which is a water supply for over half a million people! Unfortunately, this wonderful stream is classified as impaired, meaning that it does not pass the standards set by our state for drinkable, fishable waters. Putting a two mile cement bikeway into the riparian buffer will be detrimental to habitat and water quality.
