The French River and Wetlands

This map shows the towns in the French River Watershed and includes a link to guages which can be monitored in real time.

This map shows the river from south Oxford to the Connecticut line, as well as roads and streets.

The pink rail line is active P&W RR, except the portion at the lower left, which will become the Quinebaug Rail Trail. The gray lines are old railbeds which might be developed for trails.

The subbasins are outlined in magenta, and estimated habitat of rare wildlife is green striped. The dark blue "Living Waters" habitat in the southern portion is mussel habitat.

Several types of wetlands border the French River, but they are mostly deciduous wooded swamp
