This Watchable Wildlife site is located at the Silver Creek public boat ramp. A short walk leads to a wooden viewing platform, which overlooks the McKenzie River. Here, osprey, waterfowl, beaver, and deer can be sighted near the river’s shore. The boat launch is paved, which provides easy access for vehicles from Highway 126.
