Gateway to the Oregon Outback
Learn for yourself why outback means "isolated rural country," when you drive through this rugged and remote area of Oregon. Let this Byway take you through Oregon's outback, where the agricultural and timber industries are tied to life, heritage, and values; where the landscape ranges from lush green forests to arid desert; and where the people that live here seek independence but know each other by first names. While you're here, you'll also notice that community is paramount to the people who call this area home.
