| | Crissey Field State Recreation Site - Boating | | This site offers a place of solitude that invites introspection and wildlife viewing. Stroll along the edge of the Winchuck River estuary until it joins the Pacific Ocean. Birds abound. Harbor seals and California sea lions surf and feed in this rich mix of fresh and salt water. |

| | Pistol River State Scenic Viewpoint - Wind Surfing | | This area is set in the dunes of the southern Oregon coast. The river supposedly got its name when a militia soldier lost his pistol in the river during the infamous Rogue River Indian War. This is an excellent birding spot. Ocean windsurfing is so good here national championships have been held here three years in a row. The beaches and sea stacks are wonderful. Picnicking in the area is a popular recreation among larger group get-togethers as well. Guests are advised not to go near the wild animals, for their safety and the safety of the visitors. Many people bring their boats to participate in the many water activities of the ocean. |

| | Rogue River-Siskiyou National Forest - Water Activities In National Forests | | The Rogue River-Siskiyou National Forest is located in southwestern Oregon, along the California/Oregon state line and it covers almost 1.8 million acres.
