Volunteer on Projects

GWI member groups are actively involved with a variety of restoration projects along the waterway. The GWI acts as a hub for information distribution

Check out work being done in different watersheds along the Gorge:

Friends of Cuthbert Holmes: This group is removing invasive plants and restoring native habitat in Cuthbert Holmes Park, a municipal park at the mouth of Colquitz Creek near Portage Inlet.
Monitoring along Gorge Creek in Esquimalt Gorge Park: World Fisheries Trust. The lower section of Gorge Creek was daylighted in 2005/6 by the Township of Esquimalt.
