Cispus River (original) (raw)
The Cispus River is about 54 miles (87 km) long and flows into the Cowlitz River at Lake Scanewa in the Cascade Range of Washington. Its tributaries drain most of south-central and southeastern Lewis County, extreme northeast Skamania County, and some of western Yakima County. Its main stem begins in Lewis County in a high, glacial valley to the north of in the Goat Rocks Wilderness, located on the Gifford Pinchot National Forest. From here the river flows in a southwesterly direction and takes on the waters of several important headwater tributaries such as Walupt Creek.

| dbo:abstract | The Cispus River is about 54 miles (87 km) long and flows into the Cowlitz River at Lake Scanewa in the Cascade Range of Washington. Its tributaries drain most of south-central and southeastern Lewis County, extreme northeast Skamania County, and some of western Yakima County. Its main stem begins in Lewis County in a high, glacial valley to the north of in the Goat Rocks Wilderness, located on the Gifford Pinchot National Forest. From here the river flows in a southwesterly direction and takes on the waters of several important headwater tributaries such as Walupt Creek. About 40 miles (64 km) from its mouth, the Cispus River receives Muddy Fork from the left. Muddy Fork starts 7 miles (11 km) from this junction, at Mount Adams' Lava Glacier and is named for the glacial debris and silt in the water which give the river a muddy appearance. The Cispus River flows through a heavily forested valley, much of the forest regrown after the , which occurred the first decade of the 20th century and consumed most of the lower drainage. The rushing Canyon Creek enters the river originating high on the slopes of Mount Adams. A few miles down the North Fork Cispus enters the main branch about 20 miles (32 km) from its start. From here on, the Cispus River flows westerly, passing campgrounds and trails in the Gifford Pinchot National Forest. Two tributaries, Yellowjacket and McCoy Creeks, flow into the river from the south about midway though its course. Beyond here, the river passes beneath Tower Rock, a prominent quartz diorite monolith on the south side of the river. Soon after this the river leaves the Gifford Pinchot National Forest and enters the Weyerhaeuser Cowlitz Tree Farm. The Cispus River ends its course entering the Cowlitz River at Lake Scanewa, just upstream from Cowlitz Falls and Riffe Lake. There is a stream flow monitoring station on the river which sends its data live to the United States Geological Survey (USGS). Whitewater rafting also takes place on the Cispus River. (en) Der Cispus River ist ein Fluss in den Countys Lewis und Skamania im US-Bundesstaat Washington. Er liegt im Kaskadengebirge, ist etwa 89 km lang und mündet am Lake Scanewa, dem Stausee des Cowlitz Falls Dam, in den Cowlitz River. Seine Zuflüsse entwässern den Großteil des südlich-zentralen und südöstlichen Lewis County, den äußersten Nordosten des Skamania County und Teile des westlichen Yakima County. Sein Hauptstrom beginnt im Lewis County in einem hohen Gletscher-Tal nördlich der Snowgrass Flats in der Goat Rocks Wilderness, die sich im Gifford Pinchot National Forest befindet. Von hier fließt der Fluss in südwestlicher Richtung und nimmt das Wasser mehrerer bedeutender Quellflüsse wie das des Walupt Creek auf. Etwa 65 km vor seiner Mündung erreicht den Cispus River der Muddy Fork von links. Der Muddy Fork entspringt etwa 11 km von dieser Mündung am Lava-Gletscher des Mount Adams und ist nach dem glazialen Schutt und Schlamm, die ihm ein schlammiges (engl.: muddy) Aussehen verleihen, benannt. Der Cispus River fließt durch ein bewaldetes Tal, dessen Wälder größtenteils nach dem Cispus Burn neu gewachsen sind, einem Brand im ersten Jahrzehnt des 20. Jahrhunderts, der den größten Teil des unteren Einzugsgebiets erfasste. Der schnellfließende Canyon Creek mündet in den Fluss; er stammt von den Hochlagen des Mount Adams. Wenige Meilen weiter flussabwärts mündet der North Fork Cispus River in den Hauptstrom, etwa 32 km von seiner Quelle entfernt. Von hier an fließt der Cispus River westwärts und passiert Campingplätze und Trails im Gifford Pinchot National Forest. Zwei Zuflüsse, der Yellowjacket Creek und der McCoy Creek, fließen dem Cispus River von Süden etwa auf der Hälfte seines Laufs zu. Danach passiert der Fluss den Tower Rock, einen markanten Quarz-Diorit-Monolithen, an dessen Nordseite. Bald danach verlässt der Fluss den Gifford Pinchot National Forest und tritt in die Weyerhaeuser Cowlitz Tree Farm ein. Der Cispus River beendet seinen Lauf an der Mündung in den Cowlitz River am Lake Scanewa, genau oberhalb der Cowlitz Falls und des Riffe Lake. Es gibt einen Pegel, der seine Daten live an die USGS sendet. Die am Flusskilometer 28,57 nahe Randle gemessenen Abflusswerte sind die folgenden: * Durchschnitt: 28,3 m³/s * Maximum: 277,5 m³/s * Minimum: 4,7 m³/s Auf dem Cispus River kann auch Rafting betrieben werden.
