Our amazing summer students and team of volunteers have developed a virtual tour of the Jijuktu’kwejk watershed and river using a Story Map! “Saving the Jijuktu’kwejk River” is all the information and beauty of being on the river, without getting wet or getting mosquito bites!
Visit the story map now!
Using maps, land photos and aerial photography, our team has created an immersive learning experience for you!
The themes in the story map are:
- Introducing the Jijuktu’kwejk watershed
- The importance of the watershed
- Problems within the watershed
- Restoring the watershed
A scrolling-style website, you can pass through these themes through maps, photos, and diagrams. Anyone interested in the river or the watershed will surely learn something new!

Student workers from this project were funded by Canada Summer Jobs 2020. Special thanks to Esri Canada for providing access to their GIS technology through the Esri Nonprofit Organization Program.
