Interpretive Panels for Stream Restoration Project created by Christine Elder
I designed and illustrated nine 2 x 3-foot interpretive panels that tell the story of the successful river restoration efforts that enabled a return of Chinook Salmon and Steelhead Trout to the watershed. They are located on Clear Creek, a major tributary to the upper Sacramento River in northern California.
I also assisted in writing the interpretive text, worked with subcontracted photographers to choose the best photographs possible and oversaw the production and printing of the panels.
Client: Western Shasta Resource Conservation District, California
