They kick playfully at the cold waves of the ocean they’ve been paddling toward over the last month — the ocean that’s seen fewer and fewer salmon return to it over the last century as four hydropower dams blocked their ideal spawning grounds upstream.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I think our ancestors would be proud because this is what they’ve been fighting for,” said Tasia Linwood, a 15-year-old member of the Karuk Tribe, on Thursday night, ahead of the group’s final push to the end on Friday.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The Klamath River is newly navigable after a decades-long effort to remove its four hydropower dams to help restore the salmon run — an \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11622280/fish-blood-in-their-veins-but-few-salmon-in-their-river\">ancient source of life, food and culture\u003c/a> for these paddlers’ tribes who have lived alongside the river for millennia. Youth primarily from the Yurok, Klamath, Hoopa Valley, Karuk, Quartz Valley and Warm Springs tribes paddled 310 miles (499 kilometers) over a month from the headwaters of the Wood River, a tributary to the Klamath that some tribes consider sacred, to the Pacific Ocean.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The teens spent several years learning to navigate white water through Paddle Tribal Waters, a program set up by the nonprofit Rios to Rivers, to prepare local Native youth for the day this would be possible.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>During their last days on the water, the group of several dozen swelled to more than 100, joined by some family members and Indigenous people from Bolivia, Chile and New Zealand who face similar challenges on their home rivers.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>Dams built decades ago for electricity\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>Starting in the early 1900s, power company PacifiCorp built \u003ca href=\"https://apnews.com/article/klamath-dam-california-removal-restoration-473a570024584c2e02837434e05693da\">the dams\u003c/a> over several decades to generate electricity. But the structures, which provided 2% of the utility’s power, halted the natural flow of a waterway that was once known as the third-largest salmon-producing river on the West Coast.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>With the dams in place, tribes lost access to a reliable source of food. The dams blocked the path to hundreds of miles of cool freshwater streams, ideal for salmon returning from the ocean to lay their eggs.
