Description
- Abstract: Detroit Reservoir is a 3,580 acre Corps of Engineers multipurpose reservoir located at river mile 48.5 on the North Santiam River. The dam is located just below the confluence of the North Santiam and Breitenbush rivers. The reservoir was impounded in 1953 and is 9 miles long and over 1 mile at its widest point. Surface elevation is 1,569 ft at full pool. The reservoir is located about 50 miles east of Salem and road access is via State Highway 22. A large overnight campground and a day use area, both with boat launching facilities, are maintained by the Parks and Recreation Division of the Oregon Department of Transportation. The U.S. Forest Service (USFS) maintains two campgrounds on the south side of the reservoir, and there are two commercial boat concessions near the town of Detroit. Most of the area surrounding the lake is USFS land, although there are some private homesites on the North Santiam arm near Detroit. The reservoir receives heavy recreational use during the spring and summer months, including fishing, swimming, boating, camping, and water skiing. Fish passage structures were not incorporated in either Detroit or Big Cliff (reregulating dam) dams and consequently some 82 miles of stream are no longer available to former runs of spring chinook salmon and winter steelhead. In July 1982, the Oregon Fish and Wildlife Commission accepted the Department's recommendation to manage Detroit Reservoir for hatchery fish.
