Long-awaited report shows that replacing the dams’ benefits is possible. Change in the Snake basin is inevitable.
The first time I saw the Eel River flowing under the remote redwood forest along Humboldt County’s Avenue of the Giants, I saw a dirty, blown-out river that the locals swore to me was home to massive steelhead. I lived in the small city of Eureka for a couple of years in the late 90s,…

The water level of the lake has declined so drastically (over 150 feet!) that as of a few years ago the lake can no longer support trout due to its high salinity.
