Small lake at the top of the first climb

From this meandering and quiet road you gain a great view of Homestead Lake nestled into the landscape amongst the trees. There is a layby to pull over to take a closer look, and perhaps a photo.

This beautiful blue pool is located at the bridge to the Wizard Falls Fish Hatchery. Enjoy the sky blue waters of the Metolius River and learn about the fish who live in its waters.

These delightful springs emerge from the hillside and spill into the crystal clear waters of the Metolius.

This is a pristine alpine lake amidst a dense forest of Ponderosa Pines. The north shore offers a spectacular viewpoint of Mount Washington. On the west end of the lake, there is an excellent view of Black Butte.

Suttle Lake was named after John Settle, whose name was unfortunately misspelled in the original filing of the official records. The lake itself is beautiful and offers plenty of activities as well as great views of the surrounding mountains.

In 1948, Wizard Falls Fish Hatchery was constructed, diverting the river upstream, causing the falls that once existed to run dry unless the hatchery is shut down. The rapids here at Lower Bridge are often confused with Wizard Falls.

In the heart of Oregon's rugged landscape stands the Crooked River High Bridge, a steel arch masterpiece by Conde McCullough, born in 1926. Its grandeur, with a 295-foot deck above the canyon floor, a 330-foot main span, and a total length of 464 feet, once carried travelers on US 97. However, the demands of modern traffic led to its graceful retirement in 2000, making way for the Rex T. Barber Veterans Memorial Bridge. Today, it remains a cherished walkway, a living testament to history.
