About Us

As you explore the roads and trails in the Crested Butte area, take Stream Tracker with you and contribute to better understanding when and where smaller streams are flowing or have dried.

 

We are seeking volunteers to mark streamflow condition as a rapid assessment of flow, standing water, or no flow  at over 100 sites along roads and trails in the East River Basin near Crested Butte.

Anyone can participate - visit established hotspots or establish new sites - make observations at any time
