Course

The Teanaway River begins near the confluence of its three forks, the North Fork, Middle Fork, and West Fork Teanaway. These forks all begins at elevations above 5,000 feet (1,500 m) in the Cascade Range northeast of Cle Elum Lake. The confluence is located in the vicinity of the Teanaway Community Forest.[4]

After its forks joins, the Teanaway River curves through the Teanaway River Valley, flowing east, then west, then south to join the Yakima River near Teanaway.

gollark: It's a oneliner in python, `"".join(map(lambda a: chr(int(a, 2)), x.split(" ")))` where x is the string of bytes.
