It’s going to be pretty hot in the high desert, but there are also a few mountain streams along your route. Clear Creek just off NF-42 is about a mile off of highway 26. A bit beyond that is the Oak Grove Fork of the Clackamas River. Both are easily accessed from the road. The Salmon and Zig Zag are also easy to access off 26 at Wildwood Recreation Site and Tollgate Campground, respectively. All of these streams fall outside the emergency “Hoot Owl” regulations that went into effect on July 1, so you can fish them all day. Have fun!
