Boulder Dam across Black Canyon forms a 115 mile lake, filled in three years, with speculation on crustal bending due to water weight.

Habits of Salmon in Pacific Waters
A Pathfinder note explains that a group of Pacific salmon known as king salmon die after the breeding season from July to December and do not return to the sea. Other salmon types return to sea after spawning and stay there until the next season. All salmon live partly in sea and fresh water, breeding in fresh water as they ascend rivers to spawn.
