Jackson F. Kimball State Recreation Site, State recreation site in Klamath County, Oregon, US.
The Wood River headwaters emerge from a spring near a pine forest, creating a clear lagoon surrounded by aspen trees and mountain slopes.
The Oregon Board of Forestry transferred 19 acres of Sun Pass land in 1955 to establish a park honoring forest warden Jackson F. Kimball.
The site preserves a natural spring system that connects to the larger watershed of Crater Lake National Park through underground aquifers.
The park maintains ten primitive campsites and two horse camps, available from May to November, with basic facilities including vault toilets.
The spring water travels underground for 20 miles from Crater Lake before emerging at the surface within the recreation site.
