Oregon's rivers fascinate us! They offer cool, restful moments along their shady shorelines and that's the basis for this week's Grant's Getaways.
This week, I travel to Central Oregon to visit a river that has earned protection and is prized for it's fishing, camping and unique outdoor adventures. Plus, you can watch the Metolius River come to life!

How you ever seen a river be born? Headwaters of the Metolius River Where the Flyfisherman Go!
Flyfishing Central, water stays at the perfect temprature year around which makes it ideal for flyfishing year around.
Here is some more info on the Metolius:
The Metolius River (pronounced muh TOLL ee us) is a tributary of the Deschutes River (through Lake Billy Chinook) in Central Oregon, United States, near the city of Sisters. The river flows north from springs near Black Butte, then turns sharply east, descending through a series of gorges before ending in the western end of the lake. The unincorporated community of Camp Sherman lies astride the southern end of the river. The name of the river comes from the Warm Springs or Sahaptin word mitula, meaning white salmon and referring to a light colored Chinook salmon and not a whitefish.
The headwaters of the river are at Metolius Springs, where the river emerges from two clusters of springs at the base of Black Butte. Water flows to these springs from the drainage basin around Black Butte Ranch, several miles to the south. The elevation of the drainage basin is 300 feet (91 m) above that of the springs, forming a natural standpipe that tends to stabilize the river's rate of flow.[4]
As a consequence, the water level in the Metolius River is relatively constant. The rate of flow at the headwaters is approximately 190 cubic metres per minute (6,700 cu ft/min) or 50,000 gallons per minute), although it grows by an additional 2,300 cubic metres per minute (81,000 cu ft/min) or 600,000 gallons per minute) by the time the river reaches Lake Billy Chinook. Similarly, the water temperature is also stable; at the river source, the water temperature is a consistent 48 °F (8.9 °C).[5]
General
The Metolius River flows 28.6 miles (46.0 km) from Metolius Springs through the Deschutes National Forest, emptying into Lake Billy Chinook and ultimately the Deschutes River. The upper 11.5 miles (18.5 km) of the river are popular for catch-and-release fishing, whitewater rafting, picnicking, and camping. The lower 17 miles (27 km) are on the boundary of the Warm Springs Indian Reservation, and flow by a primitive area where motorized vehicles are not allowed.
The Metolius River was officially designated a National Wild and Scenic River in 1988.[6][7]
Many of the summer homes along the Metolius River are constructed on United States Forest Service land, under provisions of a 1915 act of Congress, and are generally required to be set back from the river at least 50 feet (15 m), allowing public access to the river
Metolius River - Camping, Hiking & Relaxing
The first stop of our seven week adventure began in site 17 at Pioneer Ford campground. This beautiful space is located on the Metolius River near Sister, Oregon. It is further than other campgrounds along the Metolius River....yet the beauty of the location is that it offers several private, shady .....and peaceful spaces.

Metolius River, Oregon, 2014
Metolius Springs is the source of the Metolius River, which flows 29 miles through the Deschutes National Forest emptying into Lake Billy Chinook. The flow from Metolius Springs is sufficient to create a full-flowing river, making the Metolius River one of the largest spring-fed rivers in the United States.
