The native range of {{nowrap|''Oncorhynchus mykiss''}} is in the coastal waters and tributary streams of the Pacific basin, from the Kamchatka Peninsula in Russia, east along the [[Aleutian Islands]], throughout southwest Alaska, the Pacific coast of British Columbia and southeast Alaska, and south along the west coast of the U.S. to northern Mexico. It is claimed that the Mexican forms of {{nowrap|''Oncorhynchus mykiss''}} represent the southernmost native range of any trout or salmon (''Salmonidae''),<ref name=Behnke2002-117>{{cite book |last=Behnke |first=Robert J. |others=Tomelleri, Joseph R.

The range of coastal rainbow trout {{nowrap|(''O. m. irideus'')}} extends north from the Pacific basin into tributaries of the [[Bering Sea]] in northwest Alaska, while forms of the Columbia River redband trout {{nowrap|(''O. m. gairdneri'')}} extend east into the upper [[Mackenzie River]] and [[Peace River]] watersheds in British Columbia and Alberta, Canada, which eventually drain into the [[Beaufort Sea]], part of the Arctic Ocean.<ref name=Behnke2002-82>{{cite book |last=Behnke |first=Robert J. |others=Tomelleri, Joseph R.
