	Humboldt River - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The river is highly variable in flow, generally decreasing in volume downstream to the west, in part due to the removal of water from the river for irrigation.
		The region of the river in northern Nevada was sparsely inhabited by the Paiute and Shoshone at the time of the arrival of European settlers.
		In 1869, the river was used as part of the route of the Central Pacific segment of the transcontinental railroad.

	8 Little Humboldt (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-09)
		Four remnant populations of Lahontan trout can be found in the Humboldt River of northern Nevada, the only major basin entirely within Nevada, flowing south and east from mountains in northeastern Nevada before vanishing into the Humboldt Sink in western Nevada.
		The South Fork Little Humboldt is home to one of these four populations, but perhaps not for long.
		The habitat is getting worse, according to the Bureau of Land Management, and Oro Vaca, the Colorado company that grazes cattle on both private and public land in the basin, has resisted efforts to protect it.

	Humboldt River main stem, Nevada
		The river was digitized along the visible channel and as a centerline through the reservoir as indicated by Humboldt River Project Chief Russ Plume and agreed upon by Glen Hess, Nevada District Surface Water Specialist.
		According Russ Plume, Glen Hess, and Carl Thodal, the endpoint of the Humboldt River was determined to be at the USGS gage at the last bridge, located near the west edge of the 1:24,000-scale Wildhorse Pass quadrangle.
		The main channel of the Humboldt River is attributed as main stem, until the determined end of the river, where it is then attributed as an extended channel to the Humboldt Sink/Lake.

		Ogden explored hundreds of square miles of the Humboldt's course, left records of his trailblazing in his journal and first map of the area.
		Ogden gave the name "Unknown River" to the Humboldt at this time, as he was unsure where it went.
		Ogden's or Mary's River were commonly used names for the Humboldt prior to the publication of John C. Fremont's map in 1848.

	Humboldt Park
		Humboldt Park began life as North Park in the 1860s on Chicago's Northwest Side as a tract of relatively flat land, with little local relief.
		In 1907 a boat landing and pavilion were added to the park, along with a music court for band concerts in 1913.
		Humboldt Park was transformed from an undistinguished marshy area into one where nearby residents could find a few minutes of respite amid the drudgery of the industrial metropolis.

		This scene is often repeated throughout the Upper Salmon River basin, one of the Columbia River's few tributary basins that has escaped significant development, with much of it preserved as wilderness.
		The Salmon River is thought to have produced more than 40 percent of the Columbia River Basin's spring and summer Chinook salmon.
		Or consider the East Fork Salmon River watershed, where rancher James Bennetts diverts Herd Creek water down an unlined ditch for approximately one-quarter mile until it reaches a hole in the ground, which is covered by a metal grate.

	4 John Day River (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-09)
		In the headwaters, the river and its tributaries are much shallower, wider, warmer, and have fewer rearing pools than did it could.
		The BLM said it could have little direct influence over the health of the watershed due to the small amount of land they administer because much of the BLM land is in smaller tracts surrounded by private land, making management of the private lands even more of an influence on BLM lands.
		Most raft floats on the John Day are extended trips that involve washing dishes with river water, and many visitors come into direct contact with the river through boating, angling, and swimming.

		Cattle grazing is making the effects of drought more severe along the Sweetwater River as it flows down the eastern flank of the Wind River Mountains, near the Oregon, California, Mormon and Pony Express trails, and past Independence Rock and Devil's Gate.
		Cows run over 1 million acres public lands north and south of the river, trampling and overgrazing its ancient riparian wetlands.
		The Sweetwater River has high value habitat for nesting and migrating mallards, sand hill cranes and Canada geese.

		Walker River water rights have been allocated to irrigators so liberally that currently 140 percent of an average year's flow is spoken for, used to keep fields green in the stark Nevada desert.
		The enduring populations of Lahontan cutthroat in the Blackrock Desert and the Humboldt River drainage are, unlike their beleaguered relatives to the southwest, native trout that have persisted in their native range without interruption.
		I'll talk a little bit about the wonderful adventures we have had tramping through the woods and streams and throwing old ice boxes into the stream and trying to explain to the local sheriff why we shouldn't be arrested and a lot of other really nice things.

	The Trail Through Nevada
		The Humboldt River was first seen by non native Americans on November 9, 1828 when Peter Skene Ogden and his party of fur tappers stumbled upon the river in the vicinity of present day Winnemucca.
		The trail on the north side of the river was by far the best, for ahead, the river would swing far to the south and then cross the alkali flats formed by the Reese River sink.
		Just across the river from Stone House is a little hill called Treaty Hill (I), which is traditionally held to be the dividing line between the lands of the Paiute (to the west) and the Shoshone (to the east).

		The northernmost dune system, referred to as ``Humboldt Bay'' by Cooper (1967), stretches from the mouth of the Little River to Centerville Beach south of the Eel River in Humboldt County.
		The imminent threat facing these species and their associated habitats is the ongoing and threatened destruction and adverse modification of these dune systems by commercial and residential development, off-road vehicle use, trampling by hikers and equestrians, sand mining, and disposal of dredged material from adjacent bays and waterways.
		According to the CNDDB, the Little River migrated north and eroded away the dune habitat near the river mouth.
