Description
This study area was completely unknown to me up to a month ago. Although it is not as spectacular as other BLM sites, it has an emotional and aesthetic appeal all its own. Below is the description of the river from Wikipedia:
"The Deschutes River in central Oregon is a major tributary of the Columbia River. The river provides much of the drainage on the eastern side of the Cascade Range in Oregon, gathering many of the tributaries that descend from the drier, eastern flank of the mountains. The Deschutes provided an important route to and from the Columbia for Native Americans for thousands of years, and then in the 19th century for pioneers on the Oregon Trail. The river flows mostly through rugged and arid country, and its valley provides a cultural heart for central Oregon. Today the river supplies water for irrigation and is popular in the summer for whitewater rafting and fishing.
The river flows generally north, as do several other large Oregon tributaries of the Columbia River, including the Willamette and John Day."
