Long Tom River
The Long Tom River is a 52-mile-long waterway in Oregon, flowing from the Cascade Mountains to the Willamette River. It passes through rural areas, farmland, and small communities, playing a key role in local agriculture and ecosystems. The river provides habitat for fish, birds, and other wildlife, and supports recreational activities like fishing and boating. Conservation efforts focus on maintaining water quality and natural habitats to ensure the river continues to benefit both nature and local residents. Its steady flow and natural beauty make it an important part of Oregon’s landscape and ecological health.
