About the english river
The English River is a significant tributary of the Iowa River, and it flows through the central part of Iowa. It is about 194 miles long and has a drainage area of approximately 4,300 square miles. The river's name is derived from the English settlers who first colonized the area. The river's hydrology has been significantly altered by human activity, including the construction of numerous dams and reservoirs. The Coralville Reservoir and Lake Red Rock are two of the largest reservoirs along the river. The Coralville Reservoir serves as a flood control measure and also provides recreational opportunities such as boating and fishing. The Lake Red Rock is a popular site for camping, hiking, and hunting. The river also supports agricultural activities, including crop irrigation and livestock watering.
