The river is 28.6 miles long and flows into Lake Billy Chinook where it joins the Middle Deschutes and Crooked rivers. The Lower Deschutes then flows approximately 100 miles where it meets the Columbia River flows eventually into the Pacific Ocean.
It begins from two major springs located at the base of Black Butte. The water is cold, clean, and clear. Other springs provide water to the river along with several creeks, including Lake Creek, Spring Creek, Jack Creek, Canyon Creek, and Candle Creek.

A total of 11 Deschutes National Forest campgrounds are located along the 12 mile stretch from the Headwaters to Bridge 99, with 5 campgrounds on the east bank in the first 3 miles. Many sites may be reserved using the Recreation.gov website.
The character of the river begins to change below House on the Metolius as the river leaves its relatively flat meadow. It narrows and becomes deeper when Canyon Creek joins the river adding a substantial amount of water.
The river slows to create a few pools in this section which hold Rainbow Trout and Bull Trout. In fact, Canyon Creek is a major spawning area for Bull Trout. Many swim up from Lake Billy Chinook beginning in mid-August to spawn.
The river widens out now and becomes shallower in locations as it continues the journey downstream. Parking lots at the Hatchery provide great access on both sides of the river. Several pullouts are found on the road above the Hatchery and below the next Forest Service campground, Allen Springs.
From the Hatchery to Bridge 99 is about 3 miles. Another section of private property with a few cabins is found a short distance from Allen Springs Campground. Trails on both sides of the river continue around the property.
Some Bull Trout are year-round residents. Others migrate from Lake Billy Chinook around the middle of August to spawn in the clear, cold tributaries. A few will spawn in the main river as well. They will continue to stay in the river for quite a while before slowly moving back to their home in Lake Billy Chinook.
Kokanee Salmon also migrate from Lake Billy Chinook and spawn in the river during late summer and early fall. You might be lucky and see Sockeye Salmon too! This poor fish has a transmitter and tag to determine where they spawn.
When Euro nymphing during winter months, I usually start with a 5X leader and attach a tippet ring to the end. A section of 18 to 20 inch 6X tippet is added. A shorter piece of 6X, about 5 inches, is tied to the tippet ring as a dropper. You can use fluorocarbon or regular monofilament, which is what I do. Seems to work just fine for me.
Sometimes it will only be for a few feet before the window closes, meaning the micro-currents affect the tippet and begin to drag the fly. Accept the fact that at times, you might only get a drag-free drift of 3 feet. It might be all you need to trick a fish.
General George Washington's commitment to cross the Delaware River on Christmas 1776 foreshadowed the many hardships faced as well as the eventual victory of the Continental Army during the American Revolution. At first glance, the decision to transport 2,400 Continental soldiers across an icy river in one night, directly into a severe winter storm of sleet and snow seems irrational.
Washington's decision, however, was based on strategic motivation, understanding that the Continental Army desperately needed a victory after months of intense fighting with several significant defeats and no major victories. Washington also understood that the element of surprise was the only way that he and his army stood a chance of defeating the highly trained Hessian mercenaries.
On the morning of December 25, 1776, Continental soldiers woke up in their camps along the Delaware River to frozen, snow-covered ground. Weather conditions worsened and temperatures continued to drop throughout the day. Late in the afternoon, the Continentals left their tents and began to form along the river in anticipation of the night's events. Washington kept almost all of the details of the crossing a secret; as a result, none of the soldiers knew anything about their upcoming mission.
Washington's plan was to cross the river at night, march to the nearby town of Trenton, New Jersey, and attack the Hessian garrison right before dawn. Time was Washington's greatest enemy; to combat it his orders called for the various regiments to assemble at their designated crossing points no later than sunset. The close proximity to the crossing points allowed the soldiers to begin the journey immediately after nightfall struck and complete the crossing no later than midnight. Once across, Washington intended for the armies to reassemble and march approximately ten miles to Trenton, arriving there no later than five o'clock in the morning to achieve surprise. Despite his meticulous planning, the schedule failed almost before it even began.
Many of the regiments did not arrive at the river until well after dark. Additionally, a severe winter storm that included wind, rain, snow, hail, and sleet met the soldiers at the banks of the river significantly slowing their crossing. Many of the boats had to combat ice jams and unfavorable currents. To make matters even worse, the extreme darkness caused by the storm made it hard for the boatmen to see the opposite shore.
The necessity of using larger ferries to carry pieces of artillery across the river caused even more delays. Washington crossed the river with John Glover's Marblehead mariners and upon arrival debated whether or not to cancel the entire operation because it was more than three hours behind schedule. Washington decided it was too costly to retreat and he painfully watched as his army continued to trickle across the river.
The freezing and tired Continental Army assembled on the Jersey shore without any major debacles. Once ready, Washington led his army on the road to Trenton. It was there that he secured the Continental Army's first major military victory of the war. Without the determination, resiliency, and leadership exhibited by Washington while crossing the Delaware River the victory at Trenton would not have been possible.
Located in Durham and Orange counties 10 miles northwest of downtown Durham, Eno River State Parks spans across five access areas along its namesake river. The swift, but often shallow stream of the river can make for difficult paddling but provides beautiful landmarks like the Cascades. This riparian environment is popular with anglers, birdwatchers, and photographers alike. The park offers plenty of recreational opportunities just minutes from city amenities, and it is one of the state parks along the Mountains-to-Sea State Trail.
Park staff lead regularly scheduled interpretive programs that allow the public to gain perspective into what makes North Carolina state parks naturally wonderfully. Learning opportunities are available for all ages. Most events are free, though some may require pre-registration.
Join, volunteer, or donate! The Eno River Association promotes, supports, and advocates for Eno River State Park and Occoneechee Mountain State Natural Area (in addition to other sites and local parks along the river) through organizing volunteer efforts, educating visitors, hosting events, and fundraising.

The Great Mississippi River Road is about 70 miles in length, located on each side of the river between Baton Rouge and New Orleans, and is home to a collection of Louisiana's towering antebellum homes nestled in large patches of moss-draped oak trees. Still today you can catch a glimpse of what Twain once saw on the riverfront by embarking on a tour of Louisiana's historic homes and museums.
Just 20 miles outside of New Orleans, Destrehan Plantation dates to 1787 and is the oldest documented plantation in the Lower Mississippi Valley. Once stretching over 6,000 acres to the shores of Lake Pontchartrain, Destrehan was actually a small community that supported several households. Destrehan offers daily historic demonstrations that offer visitors a glimpse into what life was like during the 1800s.

The authentic St. Joseph Plantation was built around 1830 and was constructed in the raised Creole style which predates some of the nearby Greek Revival style plantations. Currently, it is a working sugar plantation. St. Joseph Plantation was bought and sold to different families over the years, however, the history of this estate is intact. Visitors can experience guided tours that wind through the live oaks (some are as old as 300 years!) slave quarters, ironsmith shop, schoolhouse, the main plantation home and the adjoining sister plantation, Felicity. 152ee80cbc
