The Columbia River Gorge is a prime winter location for migrating eagles due to the abundance of food found along the Columbia River. It's typical to see dozens of eagles from the visitor center parking lot and adjacent Seufert Park, which are both open to the public daily.

It's always our very strong expert opinion, as those who built and maintain the jetties along the coast of Oregon (and one in southern Washington), that you avoid jetties pretty much any time. Rough conditions or high waves are ideal times to heed our advice.

Consider these high surf conditions a great time to stay off jetties.
High surf conditions are expected along the south Washington, and North and central Oregon Coasts January 7th through the 8th. Large waves with hazardous surf conditions are expected with breakers up to 25 ft. High waves may wash over beaches, jetties and other structures.

The water levels in our flood storage reservoirs across the valley are very low (as they are every fall/winter per our annual elevation guide), so we have plenty of space to hold back inflows from these rain events in the coming days.

As multiple atmospheric rivers batter us with rain, we’ll manage our Willamette Valley dams to minimize the risk of flooding to communities downstream. The video below shows how much higher flows on the mainstem Willamette at Salem, Albany, and Harrisburg would be w/out our dams

We've extended this public comment period by 15 days and added an in-person info session in Stayton Dec. 16. The new deadline for comments on our draft Supplemental Environmental Impact Statement, which considers changes to how we operate our Willamette Valley dams, is Jan. 13.
We’re seeking public input on a draft study—referred to as a Supplemental Environmental Impact Statement (SEIS)—that considers changes to how we operate our dams across the Willamette Valley.

Everybody out here talkin’ about their 2025 Spotify Wrapped like life jackets haven’t been keeping us wrapped (and alive) for thousands of years. Where’s the hype for PFDs?

The study evaluates: (1) deeper fall drawdowns of Detroit Reservoir (2) the hypothetical removal of hydropower at eight Willamette Valley dams More info:

Boat ramp access will be limited at our reservoirs across the Willamette Valley this fall and winter due to a lack of spring rainfall and scheduled reservoir drawdowns. More info and a list of current and expected boat ramp availability: https://t.co/pZWrV5AcGJ
