Indian Creek (Olympia, Washington)
Indian Creek is a 3 mile Olympian creek. Its source is a wetland along the northern end of South Bay Road. It enters Budd Inlet at East Bay, having first joined with Moxlie Creek. It can most easily be accessed between Boulevard Road and Frederick Road along the Olympia Woodland Trail.[1]
Runoff from Interstate-5 is treated at a stormwater facility before entering the creek. The facility features public art displays.
Fecal coliform bacteria have been detected in unsafe levels in the creek.[2]
