TRINITY WILD AND SCENIC RIVER

The Trinity River emerges clear and cold from Lewiston Lake and flows through a deep mountain valley cloaked with conifers. The river is very popular among salmon and steelhead anglers who are often seen on crisp fall and winter mornings fly fishing from drift boats. The area has an abundance of camping places including the BLM-managed Steel Bridge, Douglas City, and Junction City campgrounds. The river has many undeveloped public access points along the corridor. Boaters plying the class I and II rapids should look for brush hazards and fallen trees.
