About the wood river
The Wood River is a 68-mile long river that runs through south-central Oregon. It is a major tributary of the Klamath River, and its headwaters are located in the Fremont-Winema National Forest. The river has played an important role in the history of the region, as it was used by Native American tribes for fishing and transportation. Today, the river is home to several reservoirs and dams, including the Gerber Reservoir, which provides irrigation water for agriculture in the area. The Wood River also supports recreational activities such as fishing and boating, and it is a popular destination for tourists who come to enjoy the scenic beauty of the area.
