“The breathtakingly blue waters of the McKenzie River,” Matt writes in the caption of his video, “where the vivid hues create a mesmerizing and unforgettable natural marvel.”
This river is located in Willamette National Forest. It has been shaped by nearby volcanos, giving it unique areas for pools and waterfalls. As a result, it is quite a popular place for folks to go boating, fishing, and hiking.
