How many miles northeast of Reno is the Lake that a 121 mile long river in California and Nevada empties into?
Pyramid Lake (Nevada) Pyramid Lake is the geographic sink of the Truckee River Basin, 40 mi northeast of Reno.
Salt River (California) The Salt River is a formerly navigable hanging channel of the Eel River which flowed about 9 mi from near Fortuna and Waddington, California, to the estuary at the Pacific Ocean, until siltation from logging and agricultural practices essentially closed the channel. It was historically an important navigation route until the early 20th century. It presently intercepts and drains tributaries from the Wildcat Hills along the south side of the Eel River floodplain. Efforts to restore the river began in 1987, permits and construction began in 2012, and water first flowed in the restored channel in October 2013.
