What we’re about
Welcome to the Shasta Environmental Alliance (SEA) Meetup group! We are a community of environmentally conscious individuals united by our passion for protecting the flora, fauna, land, air, and water of the Sacramento River Watershed through advocacy and education.
Join us to connect with like-minded individuals who share interests in environmental issues in our community. Together, we will learn, hike, collaborate, and take action toward creating a more sustainable world for our families, our children, and future generations!

Battle Creek Field Trip
Saturday, January 11, 9:30 am
Sign up for trip: https://forms.gle/Q1Kk77vVCS9P6Jmy6For this field trip we will head to the Coleman Fish Hatchery and then hike up a paved road to the Coleman hydroelectric Powerhouse and then up a hill to the Coleman Forebay. Walk leader David Ledger will explain some of the restoration work being done and planned dam removals on Battle Creek, an extremely important habitat for salmon and steelhead trout. Two of the dams are no longer functioning but are still impeding fish passage as are some diversion dams and canals.
This will be about a three-mile round trip hike to the Coleman Powerhouse and the Coleman Forebay above it. Most of this trip will be walking on a paved service road to these facilities, part of the walk will be up a fairly steep hill but easy for those in shape. On the way the walk leader will identify some of the early blooming plants as well as trees and shrubs so this outing will be part plant ID and part learning about the important restoration that will be completed.
The entire drive and hike will take about 3 hours. Dogs on leashes are okay, but bring poop bags. For further information contact david@ecoshasta.org
