Central and Eastern Oregon
The wild landscape of Central and Eastern Oregon runs deep with history and diversity.
To the north, the mighty Columbia River meanders her way through 4,000 ft canyons. In 1986 it was signed into law as a National Scenic Area. In the central part of the state, lies the high desert and scenic Three Sisters Wilderness, Ochoco and Deschutes Mountains. To the south are the Steens Mountains. They too, have stunning carved gorges, wild rivers and are home to an abundance of wildlife. It is some of the most rugged and remote land still left in Oregon. My adrenaline continues to be fueled by adventure and exploring new places of historical significance that shaped the landscape. This gallery takes me back into our forgotten past of what we did, or didn't do to build our future.

This bronze sculpture of an eagle soars over the sky on Main Street in Joseph. Sculptor Steve Parks, owner of Parks Foundry in Enterprise, created this masterpiece in recognition of Chief Joseph.
