This Gallery is
our travels to Northeastern Oregon including many Snake River
Photographs.
Gazing
across Hell's Canyon, the Indians named the mountain peaks the
"Seven Devils". Surely the
devil made such treacherous country! But sights like the
"Snake River Peniplane" soften the
geography for the viewer. One
can see burned areas that have become a sea
of
"Fireweed".
These burns are protected by the government and
cannot be cleared or logged.
These Brownlee Dam
pictures show the tame Snake
River which prompts
" The Fisherman" and"The Boater" to
use the "Road to
Travel".
Upstream one may ponder
"The Snake in
Solitude"
or take the perspective of the "Grasses View".
To those
who are "At Home"
in
the "Imnaha Valley"
the"Imnaha Store",
"Imnaha Church"
and
"Imnaha Horses" are
essential elements to life in the area.
Twisting along beside the road to Imnaha is
"Little Sheep Creek"; even the tree must twist in an
effort to "Bend and adapt".
A bit south, in
"Farewell Bend" the Snake
River
used to water cornfields by the age
old method of ditch irrigation. This
scene is long gone...a motel is there now.
Finally, the "Nyssa Sunset"
lulls the community to nightfall.
