The Mid-John Day Watershed Council takes an active role in uplands restoration including juniper control, a serious ecological issue in Wheeler County. The Muleshoe Creek Upland Improvement Project is a juniper control project that also addresses some riparian restoration in the Muleshoe drainage, a tributary to the John Day River. The project will remove 120 acres of juniper, plant riparian vegetation (including cottonwood and aspen), and protect riparian vegetation from wildlife browsing in degraded areas.
