The river is fed by several tributaries, including the Santiam River and the McKenzie River, and is dammed in several locations. Seasonally, the flow of the river varies with snowmelt and rainfall. Interestingly, the Willamette River was once home to large populations of Chinook salmon and steelhead, but these populations have declined due to habitat loss and overfishing. Restoration efforts are underway to improve the health of the river and its ecosystem.
