	Upper San Francisco River
		The river bed is gravel as on the lower San Francisco, so floatation is rarely a problem.
		Also remember that the San Francisco River drains 2766 square miles, so this is not a place to visit in the rainy season.
		The river bed is fairly firm, so the limit of travel is set by deep or swift water.

	San Francisco River, New Mexico (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-01)
		Paddling this great river is a truly awesome experience, partly because of its natural grandeur and partly because it is a rare occasion when rivers of the area bordering the Sonoran desert flow at navigable levels.
		The river is boatable in canoes, kayaks and rafts during mid- to late-spring months, or after heavy rainfall in the Mongollon and San Francisco Mountains.
		The San Francisco River is another seldom-navigable stream that flows whenever snow melts in the mountains of Apache National Forest.

		The new town of Caninde de San Francisco, was built back from the banks of the river that overlooked its original location due to the construction of the Xingó hydroelectric dam in 1997.
		Now, with the control of the flow of water, the sediments are not brought in with the rain in the rainy season and with the sediments came the nourishment for the fish and so today the fish neither grow nor breed due to the lack of muddy waters in which to spawn their eggs.
		The three-hour trip down river to Penedo was enlivened by the friendly and talkative crew of Captain José consisting of his son, Rodrigo and assistant, Zé, who both surprised us with their level of education and general knowledge.

		The main deck seats 80 to 100 guests for San Francisco dinner cruises while the upper deck accommodates 60 to 70 guests for an SF dining cruise.
		For groups of 250 to 600 guests per deck, she is a San Francisco landmark.

		Other areas include the Box Canyon of the San Francisco River, located between Luna and Reserve; it is actually three separate box canyon areas, none of which is easily accessible and portions of which lie within private land.
		WALKING THE RIVER Whether along flats or box canyons, hiking the San Francisco River is not for the faint of heart.
		It flows between Hellroaring Mesa (8,145 ft.) and Dillon Mountain (8,740 ft.) to the north and the San Francisco Mountains (8,435 ft.) to the south.

		The surrounding area along the river channel in light gray to white could be covered by dense tropical rain forests.
		The water surface of the San Francisco River shows rather gray color as compared to small lakes and tributaries, which could indicate that the river water is contaminated by suspended material.

	NRDC: Restoring the San Joaquin River
		Since the completion of Friant Dam in the 1940s, nearly 95 percent of this once-mighty river's flow has been diverted for irrigation, causing over 60 miles of the river to run dry, harming fish and wildlife and degrading water quality for nearly two-thirds of all Californians.
		The San Joaquin is California's second longest river and one of the primary sources of flow to the San Francisco Bay-Delta, the largest estuary on the West Coast and the source of drinking water for more than 22 million Californians.
		People who lived along the river likened the noise of spawning salmon to a waterfall, noting the fish were so abundant you could practically cross the river on their backs.

	Final Empire Chap 19
		It is mainly along the San Francisco River and it’s sister stream, the Gila, that the Sonoran biota penetrates southwestern New Mexico and between the two valleys an impressive representation of such plants and animals is found.
		The San Francisco and other such valleys are also what might be thought of as oases for plants and animals which require permanent surface water or for the habitats that it fosters.
		The San Francisco Valley seen from afar, is a narrow ribbon of verdure through the usually brown hills and plateaus of southern Catron County, but in places it has been changed by settlement and agriculture.

	About the Rio das Velhas Diamond of Brazil (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-01)
		Almost as little is known of this gem as of the "Star of Diamonds." It was found about the year 1852, in the Rio-das-Velhas (Guaicuti), a large river flowing from the Paraupeba Mountains, through the province of Minas-Geraes, Brazil, northwards to the the right bank of the San Francisco.
		The upper branches of the San Francisco rise on the north of the Serra-das-Vertentes, 3,000 feet above the sea.
		It is not unlikely that the stone under notice may have travelled down the San Francisco to the point where it was eventually found.

	Different River » San Francisco Condemns the Catholic Church
		It was just a couple of weeks ago that the San Francisco Board of Supervisors passed a resolution officially condemning “Christian fundamentalist[s]”, in what appears to me to be a blatant violation of the Supreme Court’s ruling in Epperson v.
		I guess San Francisco county government is free to express their opinion — although I would expect if the Butte, Montana city government passed a resolution praising the Southern Baptist Church, the ACLU would be looking through the precedents, looking for some way to turn this into an establishment of religion clause violation.
		There was not one member of the San Francisco Board of Supervisors who thought it inappropriate for the government to condemn a religion.

		Bob had scouted the area on Tuesday and found that driving down the San Francisco River from Morenci was supposed to be far faster and easier than coming up the Gila from Bonita Creek.
		The river bottom along the San Francisco is mostly solid gravel, so even deep fords are relatively easy if you don't take on water.
		Beware that the river bottom along the Gila River is often very soft sand, so river crossings are much tougher than along the San Francisco.
