About the cispus river
The Cispus River is located in southwest Washington state and is a major tributary of the Lewis River. It is approximately 60 miles long and was named by Native Americans who lived in the area. The river has a varied hydrology, with steep drops and narrow canyons in some areas and wider, slower-moving sections in others. The river is home to several reservoirs, including the Cowlitz Falls Dam and the Mayfield Dam, which provide hydroelectric power and flood control. The Cispus River is used for recreational activities like fishing, kayaking, and camping, and is also used for agricultural purposes like irrigation. The river has historical significance, as it was once used by Native Americans for transportation and gathering of natural resources.
