So few wild rivers left. Especially in California. Worst was the train that detailed and dumped a whole tanker car of herbicide into the upper Sacramento River near Dunsmuir . Headwaters of the river that runs half the length of California and used to team with salmon and steelhead that traveled up from the Pacific each year for millennia. The spill wiped out all life before mingling with the municipal water supply of Lake Shasta. That was on July 14, 1991.

Imagine how much gold settled just below that embankment. That’s a super sluice
They should mine that soil for gold. LOL
Where is this?
Along the Feather River in Northern California
