This is the longest known time-series study of native salmon in California. The 32-page book analyzes the 23-year spawning escapement study (1980–2002) of the fall chinook salmon run on the West Branch Mill Creek, a tributary of the Smith River in Northern California.The Smith River is the largest un-dammed, free-flowing river in California, draining into the Pacific Ocean. It is considered the healthiest river system in California and has “Wild and Scenic River” status, is part of a National Recreation Area, and is managed by the California State Parks/Redwood National Park systems.
