Arroyo Seco (Salinas River)
The Arroyo Seco ("dry riverbed", usually called the Arroyo Seco River) is a major tributary of the Salinas River in central California. long, it drains a rugged, semi-arid area of the Coast Ranges and a portion of the agricultural Salinas Valley.
==Name==
"Arroyo Seco" means "dry streambed" or "dry creek" in Spanish. The river probably got its name because it disappears into the ground more than above its mouth for most of the year, however, it reaches the Salinas during the rainy season. The river above the Salinas Valley is actually a fairly large perennial stream. The common name, Arroyo Seco River or Arroyo Seco Creek, is actually a tautology because the name contains two mentions of "watercourse", thus "Arroyo Seco River" literally translates to "dry streambed river".〔Gudde and Bright, p. 18〕
