In a series of wide meanders starting at about RM 10 (RK 16), the river turns away from the airport and flows under Route 18 for the sixth and last time at RM 5.6 (RK 9.0), the site of a stream gauge maintained by the United States Geological Survey (USGS). The river flows by the east side of McMinnville, where it receives Cozine Creek from the ...
The USGS monitors the flow of the Siletz River at a station east of Siletz and 42.6 miles (68.6 km) from the mouth. The average flow of the river at this station is 1,500 cubic feet per second (42 m 3 /s). This is from a drainage area of 202 square miles (523.2 km 2), or about 54 percent of

The United States Geological Survey (USGS) monitors the flow of the Wilson River at a stream gauge 9.3 miles (15.0 km) from the mouth of the river. The average flow at this gauge is 1,177 cubic feet per second (33.3 m 3 /s). This is from a drainage area of 161 square miles (417 km 2), about 83

Arising at 5,320 feet (1,622 m) above sea level, the river loses more than 1 mile (1.6 km) in elevation by the time it reaches the Pacific. [1] [3] Of the river's total length, 124 miles (200 km), or about 58 percent, is designated as National Wild and Scenic River – part on the upper Rogue and part on the lower Rogue.
The river's flow varies seasonally from about 50 to 1,000 cubic feet per second (1.4 to 28.3 m 3 /s). Irrigation diversions, which play a significant role in the river, contributed to the extinction of the local run of Coho salmon in the 1960s and reduced the population of the run of spring Chinook salmon to a low of 13 fish in 1999.
