critical habitat - chinook

[NewGraphEnvironment]

Chinook spawn in August and September throughout the system. Chinook spawners utilize five sections of the mainstem upstream of Morice River through to Bulkley Lake. Principal spawning areas include the mainstem above and below Buck and McQuarrie Creeks, between Cesford and Watson Creeks, and the reaches upstream and downstream of Bulkley Falls DFO (1991e).

Chinook spawn in the mainstem, Buck Creek, Byman Creek, Richfield Creek, Maxan Creek, and Foxy Creek, with the latter four creeks being subject to seasonal fluctuations in water levels and flows. Chinook juveniles rear in all six spawning streams.
