Reach Information:

Dodge park is adjacent to this reach's confluence with the Sandy River. It has been heavily influenced by flows from both the PGE Bull Run Hydroelectric project since 1906 and the City of Portland's municipal water supply operations since 1895. Water was diverted from the Sandy River to this reach by way of Roslyn Lake until the removal of Marmot Dam in 2007.
