For the best of both Oregon worlds, beat a hasty retreat to Bend, a central city home to a culturally-oriented community and close to ski slopes, raftable river, ragged mountains, golf courses, top climbing spots and peaceful forest.
Rainbow trout and black bullhead catfish are present in the pond. All methods of fishing work well here, especially early in the summer. Flat areas are available for camping adjacent to the pond. The pond is also a great place to take a swim during the summer.
