Warm Springs River
The Warm Springs River, located in Oregon, is approximately 7.5 miles long and has a history of being a significant source of irrigation water for agricultural purposes. The river gets its water from several small tributaries that originate in the Cascade Mountains. The Warm Springs Dam, built in the 1930s, created the Lake Simtustus Reservoir, which provides irrigation water to the nearby Warm Springs Indian Reservation. The river is also home to the Pelton Round Butte Hydroelectric Project, which includes two dams and a reservoir. The project generates hydroelectric power for the surrounding communities and provides recreational opportunities such as fishing and boating. The river is also used for whitewater rafting and kayaking during the spring and summer months.
