Merced in indeed in California and goes from Lake McClure to the Joaquim
River, which sooner or later empties into Honker Bay and the Pacific Ocean.
 At least on the map I am looking at.  The Katmai is definitely on the
south shore of Alaska, also going to the Pacific Ocean.  :)

My main point was that Merced was not taken from the name Mercedes with
some letters chopped off, it was part of a series of names of rivers.  All
going to the Pacific.  :)   You have to love the nitpicking on this list,
not that I ever engage in any of that.  :)  No sir, not me.

Kind regards,

You might want to make that western US... I don't think the Merced hits the
PNW, and the Katmai I believe is in Alaska.
