Walker River, West Fork

18 Sep 2015 3 3 538
In Wilson Canyon, a water gap where the river crosses the Singatse Range from Smith into Mason Valleys. The West Fork rises in the Sierra Nevada and flows east out into Nevada. It joins the East Fork in Mason Valley and the combined river ends at Walker Lake, a closed-basin lake whose only outlet is evaporation. (I've got an album on it, too.) Nevada State Route 208 also goes thru the canyon, paralleling the river.
