Dry Creeks of Summer




These two dry creek beds have looked like this since early August. The one to the left is Dry Creek and it runs from the Pacific coastal range along side of Highway 36 West toward Red Bluff and I believe empties into the South Fort of Cottonwood Creek. The one to the right is Thomes Creek and it runs from the Paskenta Mountain Range through Flournoy, Corning, Gerber, and Los Molinos. They don't look like much now but come the rainy season and snow melts they are like small rivers. (Just click on the pictures for a larger view).
