Oregon has over 200 rivers within its borders (not counting every single gully, stream, creek and trickle) and each one has a story to tell. Wading through history, geology, wildlife and wild stories, I found some fun factoids that you may not know about five of Oregon's most interesting rivers, including the John Day, The D, the Willamette, the Rogue and the McKenzie. Get the details - and FREE MAPS - here! Post your adventure here.
