    The beauty of Pilkens reservoir is reason enough to stop by. All the water falling down from the sky makes Pilkens reservoir a wet place; December is the wettest month with most rain, and the driest month of the year is July. Pilkens reservoir is a beautiful lake in the Central Cascade Range. Be careful coming to the Central Cascade Range, you might not ever want to go home again. Pilkens reservoir is not the only site close by, Tadmor Lake is a close by lake,  
   and the panorama of stunning Greenhorn Hill is good.
This lake is so wonderful. There's whitewater on Santiam River - Middle for all you thrill seekers, and why not take a little visit to Lewis Creek since you're here. That right there is heaps of amusing stuff already but it goes on, the Central Cascade Range has it all. Why not take a refreshing hike along the Snow Peak Mill City Trail, as expected you could also have a look at Watters Reservoir while you're
 
               here; it's not far at all. You can run the rapids of Santiam River - South right next door to Pilkens reservoir, and do take a hike on the Crabtree Lake Trail.
