Metolius

The landscape around Metolius is a high, dry agricultural plain east of the Cascade Range, which has shaped both its compact layout and farm-based local economy. Irrigated fields and open rangeland define this part of Jefferson County, where wide horizons contrast with the forested mountains farther west. Metolius developed beside the rail corridor running through central Oregon, and its modest street grid still reflects that railroad-era foundation. The city lies within the broader High Desert region, close to the communities and working lands around Madras. Browse additional webcams from central Oregon to extend your view of the High Desert.
