  • Northern California Coast Northern Focus Area
    14.1 Description of Area 14.1.1 The Land The Northern California Coast - Northern Focus Area is composed of coastal Del Norte and Humboldt counties. The boundary extends eastward from the Pacific coast to the top of the first inland mountain range, and encompasses many of the region's existing and former wetlands. The focus area also includes a few important riparian and floodplain areas adjacent to major coastally draining rivers (Figure 13). In this northernmost California County, the coastline tends to be composed of rocky cliffs and high bluffs which rise steeply into the coastal mountain ranges with their deeply cut 14.0 canyons. Two major rivers drain the interior mountain ranges and empty into the Pacific Ocean within the boundary of Del Norte County: the Smith River, which has its origins in north- eastern Del Norte County and southern Oregon, and the Klamath River with headwaters much farther to the NORTHERN north and east in south central Oregon. Humboldt County, to the south, includes portions of CALIFORNIA the California Coast Range and the southern Klamath Mountains. The most extensive coastal wetlands are associated with floodplains in the lower Eel River COAST─ Valley and the Humboldt Bay area. Other significant wetland habitats include Mad River Estuary, Little River Valley, Redwood Creek Estuary, Big Lagoon, NORTHERN Stone Lagoon, and Freshwater Lagoon. Major rivers and streams draining the mountain ranges of Humboldt County include the Eel River, Van Duzen FOCUS AREA River, Mad River, Trinity River, Klamath River, Mattole River, Bear River, and Redwood Creek. Like the Klamath River, the Trinity and Eel rivers have large drainage basins within the Coast Range and the Klamath Mountains.

  • Smith River National Recreation Area Management Plan, California
    United States Department of Agriculture Forest Service Six Rivers National Forest National Recreation Area ---------- Management Plan The Smith River National Recreation Area "The Heart of One of the Largest Wild & Scenic Rivers in the United States" When Congressman Bosco introduced the National Recreation Area (NRA) legislation, he referred to the Smith River as the "Crown Jewel" of California's Wild and Scenic Rivers. The Tolowa Indians also recognized the River's jewel-like qualities, naming it "Hiouchi," meaning "blue queen." Today, the Smith is the only watershed in California that is undammed. Its crystal-clear water, spectacular scenery and outstanding fishing make the Smith a special place. Dedicated on May 18, 1991 by Congressman Bosco and Governor Wilson, this 305,000 acre NRA is part of the Six Rivers National Forest. Like the river itself, the NRA was born of years of free-flowing public interest. The unique act creating the NRA divided it into eight management areas and set general policy for each area. Detailed direction was left to the NRA Plan, which the act authorized, for the management of the area and rivers. Welcome to the grandeur of the Smith River National Recreation Area. JAMES L. DAVIS, JR. Forest Supervisor Six Rivers National Forest, USDA On November 16, 1990, President George Bush signed legislation establishing the Smith River National Recreation Area. The Smith River National Recreation Area Act required the Secretary to ... "revise the document entitled Smith River National Recreation Area Plan, dated February 1990 to conform to the provisions of this Act, and such plan shall guide management of the recreation area and shall be incorporated in its entirety into the forest plan for the Six Rivers National Forest." This plan meets this Congressional direction and is approved for management use effective immediately.

  • KLAMATH MOUNTAINS PROVINCE WINTER STEELHEAD Oncorhynchus Mykiss Irideus
    KLAMATH MOUNTAINS PROVINCE WINTER STEELHEAD Oncorhynchus mykiss irideus Moderate Concern. Status Score = 3.3 out of 5.0. Klamath Mountain Province (KMP) winter steelhead are in a state of decline from historical numbers in the basin. These ocean-maturing fish are relatively more widespread than the stream- maturing summer-run fish, yet still face an uncertain future in the Klamath Basin due to reductions in suitable habitat. Description: Klamath Mountains Province (KMP) winter steelhead are anadromous rainbow trout that return to select freshwater streams in the Klamath Mountains Province, from the Klamath to the Smith rivers in California. Winter steelhead are distinguishable from other steelhead by (1) time of migration (Roelofs 1983), (2) the mature state of gonads at migration (Shapovalov and Taft 1954) (3) location of spawning in mainstem rivers and tributaries and behavioral traits (Everest 1973, Roelofs 1983). More recently, the early maturing life history has been found to have a genetic basis in the Omy5 gene locus (Pearse et al. 2014). Winter steelhead are nearly identical in appearance to the more rare summer steelhead but are more likely to have spawning colors in the lower reaches of rivers (see description under Northern California coastal winter steelhead). Taxonomic Relationships: All coastal rainbow trout of North America, including coastal steelhead, have been identified in the subspecies Oncorhynchus mykiss irideus (Behnke 1992). CDFW recognize distinct life history variations of steelhead in the KMP Distinct Population Segment (DPS) based upon their timing of freshwater entry, reproductive biology and spawning strategy (Busby et al. 1996, Hodge et al. 2013). These life history variations are generally called winter and summer steelhead, with a distinctive variant known as ‘half-pounder’ that may be derived from any steelhead of any run-timing.
