This
issue's map shows the San Francisco Bay Watershed, with major rivers,
streams, lakes, and the major water projects. Follow the orange lines to see
where water is diverted within and beyond this watershed.
The fish icons show where you might still see salmon spawning in rivers and
creeks, but please check http://www.bay.org/rivers-and-delta/viewing-wild-salmon for more information.
The Bay Institute, Salmon Aid, and the Nature Conservancy teamed up to
create an online map showing these spots in the Bay Area and the Central Valley. The map links to Google maps of each location.
Thanks to Peter Vorster and the Bay Institute for their generous help with
our map.
We regret that we were unable to deliver the large fold-out map of “The
Great San Francisco Bay Watershed” we had promised.
The “Great and Wondrous Pacific Ocean” map is still available, both separately and bound into the Spring/Summer
2009 issue, free of charge upon request to schools and for other educational
uses. E-mail requests to calcoast@scc.ca.gov.
