Chehalis River - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Chehalis River is a river and river system located wholly within the state of Washington in the United States. The Chehalis River has a 2,660 square-mile (6,840 square-km) drainage basin located between Aberdeen, Washington and the Willapa Hills. The river is roughly 108.2 miles (175.29 km) in total length not counting tributaries. en.wikipedia.org /wiki/Chehalis_River

American Whitewater - River Reach #2081 The river forms at the confluence of the west and east forks, and from this point to the first bridge downstream the river flows at a lazy pace through continuous class II rapids. The Chehalis is a little off the beaten path as one of the few whitewater runs in the southwest corner of the state, but it serves up some great whitewater for a wide range of interests. As you drive the shuttle, avoid roads that turn away from the river and stay on the main line that parrallels the river and allows you to road scout nearly the entire run. www.americanwhitewater.org /rivers/id/2081

The Confederated Tribes of the Chehalis The Upper Chehalis inhabited the territory from Cloquallum Creek to the upper reaches of the Chehalis River. The name "Chehalis" (meaning "sand") originally referred to a village near the present-day town of Westport and later came to be applied to the river and to the people living upriver. At one time there were many villages in the Upper Chehalis region, principal ones being located at the mouths of rivers and creeks. www.chehalistribe.org /about.htm

The Confederated Tribes of the Chehalis The Chehalis remained with the rivers to a greater degree and developed a trading route that went from the Cowlitz River system to the Chehalis river system. Although the Native American population in Lewis County is hard to determine, one report indicates that a gathering of the Upper Chehalis tribe at Ford's Prairie in 1855 was 5,000 strong. Both tribes were river-dependent; that is, they relied upon the rivers for the mainstay of their diet: salmon. www.chehalistribe.org

CHEHALIS RIVER SALMON AND TROUT ENHANCEMENT FACILITY AND FISHING REPORT Chehalis River Hatchery is a salmonid enhancement facility operated by the Department of Fisheries and Oceans (Government of Canada) near Harrison Mills in the province of British Columbia in Canada. The juvenile fish are reared for two months to one year (depending on the species) at the hatchery and then released into the Chehalis River and the Harrison River. Those that have not been caught in various commercial and sport fisheries then return to the Chehalis River, the Harrison River, and the hatchery to spawn. mypage.uniserve.ca /~chehatch

wwcheals.txt At the Chehalis River treaty council there were representatives from the Quinault and Queets, from the north side of Gray's Harbor, from the Satsop, from the Lower Chehalis, Upper Chehalis, Shoalwater Bay, Chinook, and Cowlitz. Following the record of the Chehalis River council and treaty, there is a facsimile copy of the treaty negotiated in July 1855 on the Quinault River. Ironically, the issues which Stevens refused to negotiate at the Chehalis River council and which caused the Cowlitz, Chinook, Chehalis and Shoalwater Bay Indians not to sign the Chehalis River treaty, were conceded in the Treaty of Olympia and by later Executive Orders. www.cwis.org /fwdp/Americas/wwcheals.txt

Chehalis River King Salmon From Montesano, Chehalis River,-- West 1 mi on US 12; L (south) on Devonshire Rd, The tides here do not seem to be as critical to fishing as in the lower part of the river, as the fish have moved into this area and are making their way upriver.

ESPN Outdoors -- Border crossing equals world-class steelies This is actually one river with two names: it's the Chilliwack from the headwaters at Chilliwack Lake to Vedder Crossing, and the Vedder from there to the Vedder Canal, which eventually empties into the Fraser. It certainly isn't distance, because several B.C. steelhead rivers lie as close to the Seattle metro area as most Columbia River tribs, and are easier to reach than the streams on the Olympic Peninsula. And while the Chehalis' bank access is miniscule compared to the Vedder's, this drainage is often fishable when the Vedder is blown out. www.espn.go.com /outdoors/fishing/s/f_map_05_BC_Rivers_steel.html

Upper Chehalis River Dry Season Total Maximum Daily Load Study The Chehalis River and tributaries were evaluated for loading sources and other physical, chemical, and biological river conditions that contribute to the oxygen deficit. Past studies have documented areas of low dissolved oxygen (D.O.) during the summer in the "Centralia reach" of the Chehalis River (between the Newaukum and Skookumchuck Rivers). Additional studies are recommended for the following: eutrophication in the mainstem Chehalis River and Scatter Creek, ground water interactions, and sediment oxygen demand. www.ecy.wa.gov /biblio/94126.html

Best Waterfalls of the Northwest Waterfalls of the Pacific Northwest The Snake River is one of the largest rivers in the country, and not only does it have 212 foot Shoshone Falls (50 feet taller than Niagara Falls), it's also got 7 other waterfalls in Idaho (130 foot Twin Falls is the only significant one however). Tapped for power in the late 1800's, the volume of the Snoqualmie River remains relatively consistent through the dry periods of the year, but during the snow melt seasons the 268 foot falls become one of the most powerful waterfalls in the country. However, being situated in the arid southern part of Idaho, the Snake River is diverted upstream from the falls for irrigation, and during the late summer, it's not uncommon for Shoshone Falls to go completely dry. www.waterfallsnorthwest.com /bestof.php

Chehalis River Hatchery Benefits Restored the red summer-run chinook population in the Chehalis River by the use of transplants. Some Chehalis fish are caught in Washington, Oregon, and Alaska, although Canadian catch is 80-90% of the total catch. Saltwater sport head recoveries for Chehalis coho and chinook indicate most fish are taken in the Deep Bay, Campbell River, and Nanaimo areas. users.uniserve.com /~chehatch/benefits.htm

John Hagerty of Chehalis, in his rubber raft, was the first over the falls this year. Spectators, and there are plenty including a few dozen at the park at the end of the run, watch the boats pass from the two or three bridges spanning the eight miles of river between Pe Ell and Rainbow Falls. seattletimes.nwsource.com /html/localnews/2001906855_riverrun19.html

how to fish the Chehalis river The river needs to raise about 1 to 2 feet from the normal fall low to trigger the fish to move upstream. The bulk of the fishermen on the river will usually be spoon / spinner fishermen, as they can fish about anywhere and without much special knowledge of the river or how to read the water. Stream flow info can be gotten off the internet USGS address of http://wwwdwatcm.wr.usgs.gov/rt-cgi/gen_tbl_pg A good time to fish using KwikFish is when we get a little rain and the stream flow at Porter, (which is slightly upriver) reaches 2000 to 2700 CFS with a height of 5 1/2 to 7 1/2 feet. www.how-to-fish.com /how_to_fish_chehalis_river.htm
