Lake Billy Chinook
Looking across this large lake at Broken Top and the 3 Sisters in the distance.
"Lake Billy Chinook is a reservoir in Jefferson County, Oregon. Created by the Round Butte Dam in 1964, Lake Billy Chinook lies in a canyon at the confluence of the Crooked, Deschutes, and Metolius rivers near Culver and Madras. It was named for Billy Chinook, a Native American of the Wasco tribe who traveled alongside American explorers John C. Frémont and Kit Carson in their expeditions of 1843 and 1844.
The majority of Lake Billy Chinook is surrounded by The Cove Palisades State Park. The state park offers both camping and lodging and is open all year for day use." Wiki
Much to amaze and love in Oregon!
