This Gallery is a look at the heavily
eroded volcanic deposits of the scenic John Day River, where lies a land
for every taste.
Think gold mines,
fishing lakes, lodge pole pines, split rail fences; cows and
cowboys, sagebrush, round bales,
nationally acclaimed rock formations of
Sheep Rock & Picture Gorge,
many painted hills, Cathedral
Rock, The Strawberry Mountains and desolation
at its finest.
Fox Creek (for
which the town of Fox is named) is a tributary of the
North Fork of the John Day. The Fox Church resonates in the community.
Whether in
Prairie City, Izee, or
John Day... it is the John Day River...its forks,
its meandering peniplanes, its abundant
gifts, that makes these farming communities...
beautiful, productive, and a sight for sore eyes!
