Guide to San Francisco Bay Area Creeks

Coyote Creek Watershed

The Coyote Creek Watershed includes:
Agua Fria Creek, Torogas Creek, Scott Creek, Calera Creek,
Arroyo de los Coches Berryessa Creek, Penitencia Creek,
Arroyo Aguague, Babb Creek, Flint Creek, Thompson Creek,
Yerba Buena Creek, Silver Creek San Felipe Creek, Animas Creek, Packwood Creek, Anderson Reservoir.

Downstream of where Coyote Creek meets tidewater, the channel continues along as a narrow slough flowing through the salt marsh. Other flows of freshwater join Coyote Creek in this tidewater section. It is a judgment call whether these are thought of as separate watersheds. This web page covers them all, but the maps show them as separate.
