Description: The Wild and Scenic Wallowa River includes the 10 miles from the
confluence of the Wallowa and Minam Rivers downstream to the
confluence of the Wallowa and the Grande Ronde Rivers. The river
corridor provides habitat for threatened and endangered species such
as bald eagles and peregrine falcons, and wintering range for elk,
mule deer and white-tailed deer. It also provides habitat for
spring/summer chinook salmon, summer steelhead, and bull trout, as
well as historic habitat for sockeye, coho and fall chinook salmon.
The Wallowa offers incredible fishing, hunting, wildlife viewing,
floatboating, an extended whitewater boating season, and a state park
for camping. The primary launch site for the Wallowa and Grande Ronde
corridors, as well as the Bureau of Land Management visitor center, are at the Minam Recreation Area.
Location: The 10 miles northwest of Minam on OR 82.
