Middle Mashel River corridor. This reach of the Mashel will be protected
from Boxcar Canyon to the confluence with Busy Wild Creek. The
proposed acquisition includes approximately 5 miles of the Middle Mashel,
0.7 mile of the Upper Mashel, 0.4 mile of Beaver Creek, and 0.6 mile of
Busy Wild Creek; the steep bluffs on both sides of the river and adjacent
upland forest.
