Welcome to the magnificent North Fork Lewis River Valley in Southwest Washington. Enjoy this beautiful area on the following pages. Originating on the western slopes of Mt. Adams, the river passes through Swift, Yale, and Merwin dams on the way to its confluence with the Columbia River. There are many opportunities for recreation, including fishing for kokanee, steelhead, coho, and chinook salmon. The moderate climate and ample rainfall support lush vegetation and beautiful gardens. The history of the area is interesting and colorful. For comprehensive information about the Lewis River Valley, including recreation facilities, provisions, lodging, fees and permits go to Lewis River Valley. I hope you enjoy your visit to LewisRiver.com If you have any suggestions or contributions to make for this website I'd be glad to hear from you. noel@lewisriver.com.
As part of the alternative collaborative approach to relicensing the hydroelectric projects on the Lewis River, the parties negotiated an agreement concerning the charging of fees at PacifiCorp's Lewis River Recreation Facilities and a fee agreement at PacifiCorp's undeveloped lands associated with Merwin, Yale and Swift No. 1 projects.
