Did you know?! The geology of the Portland Basin cradles Johnson Creek — from headwaters in our youngest geologic deposits, westward through the oldest rocks in the metro area — and shapes the watershed’s hydrology. 

Grab a pint at Double Mountain Brewery and dive into the Geology of the Portland Basin and Johnson Creek Watershed with Paul Edison-Lahm, Communications Director for the Geological Society of the Oregon Country. Paul and his wife Peregrine have been JCWC volunteers since 2010 and live in the watershed just blocks from the JCWC offices.
