Notes

  • http://your.kingcounty.gov/dnrp/library/2002/kcr1270/02_Chapter_2.pdf - describes existing conditions as part of the Sammamish Action Plan
    • The chinook population are dominated by the Issaquah Hatchery, however tributary spawners may (or may not) have some wild genetics.
    • High Lake Sammamish summer temperatures strongly affect river temperature, reducing summer rearing and increasing value of cool tributary inputs.
