Summary
This was recorded on a clear and sunny spring day beside the North Fork of the Salmon River near Idlewild Campground in Klamath National Forest, Siskiyou County, California. The river was flowing swift and high with abundant snowmelt originating in the Marble Mountains, a sub-range of the Klamath Mountains. On occasion, Steller's Jay's call raucously nearby from the bare branches of the White Alder growing along the river's edge. This river is part of the National Wild and Scenic Rivers System and lies entirely within the Klamath Mountains in far northern California. According to Wikipedia- "Unlike most other large California rivers, the Salmon is completely free flowing, with no dams or significant flow diversions of any kind. It is one of the most pristine areas in the Klamath River system and one of California's most pristine rivers."
