Deschutes River Backcountry Byway, Oregon
View Original Description
From the Oregon-Washington border past the whitewater rafting community of Maupin, the BLM manages dozens of camping sites, boat ramps and picnic areas along the Deschutes.
Also along the river is the 34-mile-long Deschutes River Backcountry Byway. The 9-mile-long paved section ends at Sherars Falls, where Native Americans still fish for salmon using traditional platforms and nets. After that the road is mostly gravel for another 25 miles to Macks Canyon.
