Merced River of California

Two sections of the Merced River were declared United States National Wild and Scenic Rivers on November 2, 1987 and October 23, 1992. 7.1 miles of the river were designated "wild", 16 were designated "scenic" and 35.5 miles were designated "recreational". The Merced River is managed by three entities: The Mother Lode Field Office of the Bureau of Land Management, the Yosemite National Park Office of the National Park Service, and the Sierra National Forest Office of the U.S. Forest service.
