Salmon Expeditions
by South Yuba River Citizens League

Salmon Expeditions provide on-river raft trips and classroom lessons for school groups each fall, giving students the opportunity to see threatened salmon spawn in their natural habitat. Through curriculum designed to meet Next Generation Science Standards (NGSS) and California Social Studies Standards (CSSS), students learn about the Yuba River ecosystem, water conservation, how mining has impacted the river, SYRCL's work to protect salmon, and restoration efforts underway to restore salmon habitat and help maintain a resilient watershed.
