Chimacum Creek is a stream in Jefferson County, Washington, United States. Located on the base of the Quimper Peninsula, the main stem originates from springs and ponds in the forested hills south of Discovery Bay. It flows south from its source, then turns east, then north, taking in tributaries before entering Chimacum Valley. It enters a ravine where it meets the sea in Port Hadlock-Irondale, creating a small estuary and an area of intertidal wetland as it enters Port Townsend Bay. The topography of the watershed was shaped by the Cordilleran ice sheet during the Last Glacial Maximum, which deposited large amounts of glacial outwash and sedimentary material. The area was the traditional lands of the Chemakum people, who were devastated by disease and massacres before the 1850s. The watershed was dredged and channelized during the early 20th century, turning the creek into a relatively straight channel. Environmental restoration projects help protect the spawning runs of coho salmon. ( Full article... )
