Description

At the base of the Eastern Sierra, the Carson and Walker rivers of Douglas County are fed by melting seasonal snowmelt –bringing life back to the floodplain each spring. Climate change will likely affect the timing of this snowmelt, altering the rivers and livelihoods of those who depend on them.
