The Wheatfield Fork Gualala River is a 35.1adj=midNaNadj=mid[1] stream in the mountains of western Sonoma County, California which empties into the South Fork Gualala River just east of Sea Ranch, California.
Tributaries include:
As of 2000, the Wheatfield Fork and all its major tributaries supported steelhead trout.[2]
After a significant amount of rainfall, the Wheatfield Fork has enough water for kayaking. It contains a 9.3 mile class 1 wilderness section, an 8.7 mile class 1 section near a road, and a steeper class 2+ section. [3]
The Wheatfield Fork is spanned by a 5720NaN0 bridge at Annapolis Road about 1.70NaN0 east of State Route 1. The bridge was built in 1974.[4]
