*The Shasta River station is located roughly 600 feet from the confluence with the Klamath River and serves as a census for the entire Shasta River.
*The Scott River station is 18 miles upstream of the confluence with the Klamath River and the Bogus Creek station is 0.25 miles upstream of the confluence with the Klamath River.
Depending on the year significant fractions of the adult salmonid populations in the Scott River and Bogus Creek spawn downstream of the counting stations. This in-season update doesn’t report the spawning escapement that is observed downstream of these stations.
