The Steens, Hart Mountain and Warner Valley, Abert Rim... all of this area is simply spectacular. I wouldn't want to live there; I like my rain and trees too much.

Also the part of Oregon few get to. As an example at least the older DeLorme atlases of Oregon had eastern Oregon at 1/2 the scale of western Oregon i.e. there twice as many miles per inch. <br />However between Abert Rim, Steens Mountain, the resuls of the basalt floods, and the continental collisions (Blue Mountains), also visible on the drive thru Hells Canyon (chevron folded rocks), there is a lot of interesting geology in Eastern Or.
