"an ideal park in jeopardy"

The headwaters of Muir Creek are located
near Mount Muir at approximately 750
meters above sea level. In the wet season,
November to February, the creek flow has
been measured at 6,280 liters per second.
In the dry season, June to September, the

tributaries feed into the creek, which has

headwaters to the mouth near the center
of Orveas Bay on the Straits of Juan de
