The Little Wood River tributary is formed by dozens of springs bubbling up from an aquifer, which form a stream. It is an example of a high desert, cold-spring ecosystem, and attracts a variety of wildlife, including 150 species of birds.[1] Approximately thirty miles (50 km) south of Sun Valley, it is a world-renowned fly fishing preserve.[2][3]
