About this river

Rogue River

The Rogue River is a 215-mile river in the state of Oregon, USA. The river has a rich history, having been used by Native American tribes for thousands of years before European settlers arrived. Today, it is a popular destination for tourists and outdoor enthusiasts, who come to fish, raft, and hike along the river's scenic route. The river is also an important source of water for irrigation and hydroelectric power generation. Specific reservoirs and dams along the river's length include the Lost Creek Dam, which forms Lost Creek Lake, and the Applegate Dam, which forms Applegate Lake. These dams have had both positive and negative impacts on the river's ecosystem and water quality. Despite these challenges, the river remains an important resource for the communities and ecosystems that depend on it.
