- Trillium is comprised of one contiguous 1,227-acre parcel on Prince of Wales Island that encompasses approximately 20% of the El Capitan Creek watershed.
- Trillium is unique and important ecologically because its varied habitats occur on limestone (karst) formations. The interaction of the acidic bog habitat and the basic limestone results in highly productive streams and diverse aquatic life.
- Trillium has diverse and interconnected habitat types provide many opportunities for wildlife in different life stages.
- Most of Trillium was logged during the late 1970s and early 1980s and a vast network of logging roads was constructed, with several roads bisecting regulated wetlands and streams.
- Many horizontal logs, called cribbings, were used in place of culverts for roads that crossed streams. The cribbings are now in varying states of decay and substantially block wetland and stream hydrology above and below road crossings.
- Large volumes of garbage and logging equipment was left on-site or deposited in borrow pits.
- The Bank Sponsor will actively restore wetlands and streams by removing roadbed fill and log cribbings that were historically placed in wetlands and streams and re-establishing native vegetation, installing culverts, and removing large volumes of garbage and debris from logging.
