VANCOUVER Kathleen Hackett was walking with a friend on Clayburn Creek Trail in Abbotsford Friday afternoon when something strange caught her eye. Through the trees, the water in the creek seemed a little off. We were quite high up and I remember thinking, Wow, the water sure looks white today, but I didn’t really think that much of it until we got further along, Hackett told CTV News Vancouver. As the pair got closer, they could tell that what they were seeing wasn t the water itself, but foam, and lots of it. It was obvious there was a problem because there was an awful lot of suds in the water, Hackett said. At points, you could tell it was taller than we were, and then we got up to the culvert where it was coming out of and it was overwhelming the area with foam.
