Online Mapping
The Black Creek Watershed Coalition has decided to map all the interesting places
that can be found in the Black Creek Watershed.
Each point has a web page associated with it which describes interesting facts about
the location. The mapping portion works with Google Earth which can be downloaded
from here.
You can also check out the web pages individually by category. If you come
across errors or have additional information to add to a point's web page please
contact Rochelle Bell at the address listed at the top of this page. Click here to go to the online mapping page.
