Austin Preservation: Dedicated to protection/restoration of Austin Hot Springs.

Austin Preservation is dedicated to the protection, restoration and sustainable development of Austin Hot Springs. Our goal is to protect the river, fish habitat, the forest, and ensure the safe use by the public. Austin Hot Springs is along the Clackamas River in the State of Oregon.

Our immediate goal is to raise enough money to complete the purchase of the property by the end of 2009 and work with the appropriate government agencies to protect, restore, and enjoy the Natural Resource that is, Austin Hot Springs!
