Spanish Bank Creek

Salmon spawn in our city.
3 minutes


By Ron Gruber

Ron Gruber is an Artist, outdoorsman, and long term resident of Point Grey, he’s spent his life in the neighbourhood and seen it change from having wildlife like pheasants and quails to becoming more residential.  The Spanish Bank Creek restoration has been a group effort for more than 12 years.  Ron and several other local residents are certified stream keepers.  He loves seeing new people experience the creek and learn about salmon.
