Hunt River
The Hunt River is a tributary of the Pawtuxet River in Rhode Island, USA. The river is approximately 11 miles long and flows through the towns of North Smithfield, Smithfield, and Scituate. The river has a rich history, with evidence of Native American settlements along its banks dating back to 10,000 BC. The river has been used for agricultural purposes, including the cultivation of corn and tobacco, and as a source of power for mills in the 19th century. Today, the river is used for recreational purposes, including fishing and canoeing. The river also provides water for the Scituate Reservoir, which supplies drinking water to over 60% of Rhode Island's population. The reservoir is managed by the Providence Water Supply Board and features several dams and spillways.
