Generations of Oregonians have enjoyed the Sandy River Basin. The Sandy's wild and scenic rivers are home to thousands of residents and businesses, as well as native salmon and wildlife. People boat, fish, hike, camp, ski and sightsee at popular recreation sites such as Oxbow Park, the Mt. Hood Wilderness Area, Trillium Lake and Timberline Lodge. The deep, winter snows that attract winter recreators gradually melt in the spring and summer. That provides clear, cold water for salmon, drinking water, recreation and irrigation.
