The Chewuch River is a river in the U.S. state of Washington. Its name comes from the word ''/cwáx/'' () in the Columbia-Moses language meaning "creek". The river valley was also the site of the Thirty Mile Fire which killed four fire fighters in July 2001. ==Course== The Chewuch River originates in the Cascade Range northeast of Remmel Mountain at the junction of Remmel Creek and Cathedral Creek. It flows generally south to join the Methow River at Winthrop. The Methow empties into the Columbia River. Tributaries of the Chewuch River include Andrews Creek, Lake Creek, Eightmile Creek, and Cub Creek.〔(Washington Water Year 2005 ), USGS Water Resources Data〕 Just below the mouth of Meadow Creek, the river cascades about 30 feet over Chewuch Falls. 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「Chewuch River」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
