Portage Creek
Portage Creek flows through the Reichert Preserve in Dexter Township
Portage Creek (sometimes called Hell Creek) is one of the Huron River’s prettiest and healthiest tributaries. The Portage Creek watershed is rich with natural areas—forests, prairies, and wetlands—that keep the water clean and clear. It’s a jewel for wildlife and recreation.
Because Portage Creek is so healthy, HRWC and the Nature Conservancy have made protecting it a high priority. We constantly monitor it for looming threats, and we work with local governments and property owners to preserve the natural areas that keep it clean.
