The Calawah River is a 〔(Physical characteristics of selected rivers draining the Olympic Peninsula, Washington. )〕 tributary of the Bogachiel River in Clallam County in the U.S. state of Washington, on its Olympic Peninsula.〔Landes, Henry (1917). ''Bulletin.'' Washington Geological Survey, p. 88〕 Its two major tributaries are the South and North Forks Calawah River. The river drains an unpopulated portion of the low foothills of the Olympic Mountains; its entire watershed consists of virgin forest.〔Wood, Robert (2000). ''Olympic Mountains Trail Guide: National Park and National Forest.'' The Mountaineers Books. ISBN 0-89886-618-9, p. 310〕 The river drains above U.S. Highway 101, which crosses the river about upstream of its mouth. The river's name comes from the Quileute word ''qàló?wa:'', meaning "in between", or "middle river". ==See also== *List of rivers of Washington *Quillayute River *Sol Duc River 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Calawah River」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
