| The Elwha and Dungeness River are home to threatened summer/fall Elwha Chinook, threatened spring/summer Dungeness Chinook, threatened Hood Canal/Strait of Juan de Fuca summer chum, threatened bull trout, and populations of Coho, chum, pink, summer and winter steelhead, rainbow trout and sea-run and resident cutthroat. |
| In the Dungeness Watershed, this drier climate is both a boon for sun-lovers and a bane for farmers in the Dungeness River Valley, who need to irrigate their fields and for salmon, which need sufficient flows in which to swim. |
| Diminished river flows common in the Dungeness during late summer and early fall, hamper the migrations of returning adults and steal usable habitat from young salmon preparing for life in the ocean. |
