The river begins at an elevation of Script error: No such module "convert". above sea level and falls Script error: No such module "convert". between source and mouth to an elevation of Script error: No such module "convert".. It rises northeast of Trask Mountain, a Script error: No such module "convert". peak at Script error: No such module "Coordinates".,[3] in the Northern Oregon Coast Range.
