Adventure News: The Rogue River Has Been Set Free!


After nearly a century of dam-nation, the Rogue River was set free this weekend.
As reported by The Oregonian, crews removed the temporary coffer dam on the Rogue River, east of Grants Pass, that was put in place after the 88-year-old Savage Rapids dam was knocked down this summer.
