The Journey to the Sea on the Klamath and Trinity Rivers will take place on May 15 - May 29, 2005 and conclude with a Memorial Day weekend River Rally at the mouth of the Klamath River. The Mission of this event is to unite people in the protection, restoration and preservation of the entire Klamath -Trinity Basin and our native salmon.

Paddlers are invited to join the journey's from the headwaters of the Klamath- Trinity Rivers to the Sea. You may join for a day or two or for the whole 14 day Journey. This will be a fun adventure and a chance to experience some of the rivers and forests so many in the region are working hard to protect. You are invited to join one of the many hike leaders and raft guides who will be leading trips along the Klamath and Trinity River and their tributaries.

This Journey is a volunteer effort to increase the awareness of the national importance of the Klamath-Trinity basin and the need to protect and restore it for environmental, economic and cultural uses. There is no charge to join but everyone is expected to take care of his or her own needs. Raft Companies, guides and groups may ask for fees or donations for their services. Redwoods and Rivers is offering trips down both the Klamath and Trinity and South Fork Trinity Rivers.
