Cottonwood Creek is known for the runs of what genus of Pacific salmon?
Cottonwood Creek (Sacramento River) Cottonwood Creek is a major stream in Northern California in the United States and is a tributary of the Sacramento River. About 68 mi long measured to its uppermost tributaries, the creek drains a large rural area bounded by the crest of the Coast Ranges, traversing the northwestern Sacramento Valley before emptying into the Sacramento River near the town of Cottonwood. For its entire length, it defines the boundary of Shasta County and Tehama County. Because Cottonwood Creek is the largest undammed tributary of the Sacramento River, it is known for its Chinook salmon and steelhead runs.
Salmon River (New York) The Salmon River is a large river in Upstate New York in the United States. The river is a popular and economically important sportfishing destination, and the most heavily fished of New York's Lake Ontario tributaries. From its headwaters in the Tug Hill region of New York, it flows 44 mi westward through two hydroelectric dams and over the 110 ft Salmon River Falls before it empties into eastern Lake Ontario at Port Ontario in Oswego County. The Salmon River watershed drains approximately 280 sqmi .
