The Pit River is a major river draining from northeastern California into the state's Central Valley. The Pit, the Klamath and the Columbia are the only three rivers in the U.S. that cross the Cascade Range. The Pit River drains a sparsely populated volcanic highlands area in Modoc County's Warner Mountains, passing through the south end of the Cascade Range in a deep canyon northeast of Redding. The river is so named because of the semi-subterranean permanent winter homes and large 'sweat houses' that the Pit River Tribe dug, and their pit traps for game that came to water at the river.

Ze stroomt vanuit het noordoosten van de staat naar het noorden van de Central Valley, waar ze in de Sacramento uitmondt. De Pit is de langste zijrivier van de Sacramento River. Ze ontspringt op verschillende plaatsen in de county's Modoc, Lassen en Shasta alvorens zuidwestwaarts te stromen, waar ze in het stuwmeer Shasta Lake uitmondt. De Pit levert zo'n 80% van het water in het meer. Samen met de Klamath en de Columbia is de Pit River een van de slechts drie rivieren in de VS die de Cascade Range oversteken. (nl)

  • Pit (anglicky: Pit River) je řeka v Kalifornii ve Spojených státech. Proudí ze severovýchodní části státu do nížiny zvané Centrální údolí. Společně s řekami Klamath a Columbia je jedinou americkou řekou, která překonává Kaskádové pohoří. Pit je nejdelším přítokem řeky Sacramento, se kterou se stéká ve vodní nádrži , původně asi 6 km od přehradní hráze. Hlavní tok je dlouhý 333 km ale měřeno od nejdelšího z pramenů Pitu, část vody urazí do soutoku se Sacramentem 507 km. (cs)
  • El río Pit (en inglés, Pit River, literalmente, 'río [del] Hoyo') es un importante río de Estados Unidos que drena el noreste del estado de California, discurriendo por el Valle Central. El Pit es uno de los únicos tres ríos del país —junto con el Klamath y el Columbia— que cruzan la cordillera de las Cascadas. El río Pit drena un área de tierras altas volcánicas poco pobladas, pasando por el extremo sur de la cordillera de las Cascadas en un profundo cañón al noreste de Redding. El río se llama así debido a los hoyos que los achomawi cavaban para atrapar la caza que iba a beber al río. (es)

  • Il Pit è un grande fiume che scorre dalla California nord-orientale nella Central Valley dello stato. Il Pit, il Klamath e il Columbia sono gli unici tre fiumi degli Stati Uniti che attraversano la Catena delle Cascate. Il fiume Pit prosciuga un'area vulcanica scarsamente popolata, passando attraverso l'estremità meridionale della Catena delle Cascate in un profondo canyon a nord-est di Redding. Il fiume si chiama così a causa delle fosse (pits in inglese) che gli scavarono con la funzione di "intrappolare" l'acqua del fiume. (it)
