Outing Hosts - Dave Campbell and Jim Watson

The Snoqualmie River is located approximately 1 hour from Seattle.  it has 3 forks, the South, Middle, and North Forks, which join to form the main stem river at Snoqualmie.  It flows over the Snoqualmie Falls and through the towns of Fall City, Carnation, and Duvall before joining the Skykomish to form the Snohomish River.  The Snoqualmie River is a freestone river without dams to control the flow of water.  Mother Nature is completely in charge of the stream flow.

The falls present an upstream barrier to anadromous fish.  As a result, native Rainbow Trout and West Slope Cutthroat Trout are found in all three forks.  The average size is around 8" to 10", with some more than 12" in length.  Due to the size of the trout it is recommended you use lightweight gear on these streams.
