About the siuslaw river
The Siuslaw River is a coastal river in western Oregon that spans approximately 110 miles. It has a rich history of use by indigenous tribes, European explorers, and early settlers. The river is fed by several smaller tributaries and has a diverse hydrology that includes estuaries, wetlands, and forests. Two notable dams, the Siuslaw Falls Dam and the Mapleton Dam, were constructed in the early 20th century for hydroelectric power, but are no longer operational. The river is home to a number of recreational activities including salmon and steelhead fishing, kayaking, boating, and hiking. The surrounding area also supports agricultural practices such as dairy farming and cranberry cultivation. Overall, the Siuslaw River is an important ecological and economic resource for the region.
