Old forest fire burn, recovering in pine forest. The Metolius River, a tributary of the Deschutes River in Oregon, is unique in bursting from the ground full size from artesian sources providing a volume that never varies year round. Prime trout and salmon habitat in the Oregon Cascade Mountain Range.
