Klamath

California is home to more federal forests than any other state, including the Angeles, Sequoia and Klamath national forests.

After the removal of dams on the Klamath River near the California-Oregon border last year, biologists have spotted salmon spawning far upstream in waters that were previously inaccessible for more than a century.

This includes several dam removal projects, including along the Klamath River, the largest dam removal in U.S. history.

The surrounding Redwoods National and State Parks include miles of trails and coastline north and south of the Klamath River estuary, including the rocky coastal view from High Bluff Overlook.

The nonprofit Klamath River Renewal Corp. announced the completion of all dam removal work on Oct.
