Intro

We are seeking community input about natural areas of significance in the Bonnechere River Watershed. We invite you to use this on-line mapping tool to explore the watershed, identify features and discuss related topics. Some features identified on this map may be included in our 'Nature in Your Neighbourhood' guide.

This is a collaborative project between the Ottawa River Institute, Bonnechere River Watershed Project and Ryerson University. We hope you will participate and tell your friends.
