27th Annual Coho Confab

The 27th Annual Coho Confab was held from August 7 - 10, 2025 at Sandy Bar Ranch in Orleans, CA.
 

SRF with the support of the California Department of Fish and Wildlife’s Fisheries Restoration Grant Program hosted the 27th Annual Coho Confab at the beautiful Sandy Bar Ranch on the Klamath River. The recent Klamath dam removal project afforded an opportunity to see large-scale restoration efforts in various reaches of the Klamath. Participants had the opportunity to see a wide range of projects including Mid-Klamath Helicopter Wood Loading Projects, Lowtech restoration projects in the Mid-Klamath, McKinney Fire Instream and Upslope Restoration field tour, Salmon River projects, and Klamath dam removal sites.
 

This event is renowned for taking place in beautiful riverine settings on the North Coast, where camping, swimming, and gatherings around bonfires are part and parcel of the experience.
