About the crooked river
The Crooked River is located in central Oregon and runs for approximately 125 miles. The river's hydrology has been significantly altered by the construction of dams and reservoirs, including the Bowman Dam and the Prineville Reservoir. These structures have helped to regulate water flow and provide irrigation for agriculture in the area. The Crooked River is also a popular recreational destination, with opportunities for fishing, hiking, and camping. The river has a rich history, having been used by Native American tribes for thousands of years and serving as a crucial resource for early settlers and pioneers. Today, the Crooked River remains an important part of the region's economy and ecology, supporting diverse wildlife and providing vital water resources for local communities.
