The Molalla River is a tributary of the Willamette River located in western Oregon, USA. It flows for approximately 47 miles through the Cascade Range and is a popular destination for recreational activities such as fishing, kayaking, and swimming. The river has a rich history, with indigenous people using it for trading and fishing. Today, the river is also used for agricultural purposes, with many farmers using its water for irrigation. There are no major reservoirs or dams on the Molalla River, although there are several smaller ones that are used for hydroelectric power. The river's hydrology is influenced by seasonal rainfall and snowmelt, which can cause the river to flood during the winter months. Despite this, the Molalla River remains an important source of water and recreation for people in the surrounding area.
