This artesian well, fed by the Deroche Community Watershed, has a unique output, a Buddha statue built by the adjacent property owner.

The property owner spent a number of years trying, without luck, to find a business partner to help him develop the larger well, located further into his property, as part of a water bottling operation. On a trip to Hawaii he saw a Buddha which he thought was gorgeous and as a last straw constructed one on this site hoping it would bring him the luck that had eluded him to date. Since that time local residents have been able to use this well to access the sites water without having to leave the public forest service road and enter his property.
