The Klamath river rises in Upper
Klamath lake, Oregon, near Klamath
Falls, at n elevation o f 4,412 feet
above sea level. Flowing in a south­
westerly direction it crosses into
California, at a point about 36
miles belo wits source. Nine miles
further down stream is Copco where
our Copco One generating station is
located. About a mile below this is
Copco Two. From Copco this river
continues in a southwesterly direc­
tion for 20 miles, then westerly for
60 miles, then swings to the south
for 65 miles, then makes an abrupt
turn to thiAnorth in which direction
it flows for 40 miles, emptying into
the ocean at Requa. Its total length
is approximately 220 miles. The to­
tal drainage area above Copco is 3,-
566 square miles. Elevations range
from 2500 feet at Copco One power
house to about 10,000 feet at various
summits. The drainage area is mostly
composed o f volcanic rock, lava, pu­
mice and ash— materail ideally suit­
ed for storing *he annual rainfall.
Emerging in the form o f springs the
water feeds the streams which flow
into the Klamath river. From Keno,
a short distance from Klamath Falls,
this river falls from 100 to 200 feet
per mile. Like the Columbia, the
Klamath river rises east o f the Cas­
cades and empties west o f them.
Thus, like the Columbia, it drains
both eastern and western slopes of
this watershed.
,
THE ROGUE R IVE R
The Rogue river (the main stream
o f it) rises in volcanic country on the
west slope o f the mountains surround
ing Crater lake, at an elevation o f
6240 feet above sea level. The water
feeding it at its source comes from
springs possibly supplied from Cra­
ter lake. This river takes a general
course westerly and discharges into
the ocean near Gold Beach, Oregon.
Its total length is about 175 miles.
The elevations within its drainage
basin above Prospect where our gen­
erating plant o f the same name is lo­
cated, range from 2500 to 9760 feet
the highest elevation being Mt. Mc­
Laughlin. The drainage area above
Gold Ray, where one o f the com-
panys power planrs is located, con­
tains 2020 square miles. Here, too,
as in the drainage basin o f the
Klamath, the rocks are volcanic and
the area is almost completely cover­
ed with timber. Gold Ray is about
35 miles below Prospect.
THE JM PQ U A
The Umpqua river is formed by
the North and South Umpqua rivers
which come together near Roseburg.
Oregon. The North Umpqua rises in
Marder lake near the summit o f the
Cascade range at an elevation of
over 6000 fe e t The South Umpqua
(composed o f two forks) rises on the
northern slope o f Abbott Butte. The
combined rivers, draining some 4000
square miles, enter the Pacific at
Winchester Bay. The feeder streams
flow through narrow valleys in
rough and mountaiflous country.
Surrounding snow-capped peaks are
from 8000 to 10,000 feet high. The
North Umpqua falls more than 3600
feet in the 75 miles from Diamond
lake to Roseburg. The lower stretch
o f the river formed by the North
and South Umpqua rivers, the Um­
pqua proper, falls but 485 feet be­
tween Roseburg and the ocean, a
disUnce o f about 125 miles. The to­
tal length o f this river is about 200
miles, and it flows through one o f
the most densely forested regions in
the United States.
