The Pacific Northwest, Oregon

Oregon is full of natural beauty. From lakes to mountains to a gorgeous Pacific Ocean coast, Oregon proves it really has a lot to offer both the passing visitor and lifelong resident. However, there is much more to Oregon than a mountain range and the coast. Across the Rockies lay a vast high desert that was once the scene of massive geologic turmoil.

Central and Eastern Oregon tell the story of volcanic eruptions, epic floods, and a host of natural, geologic phenomena that has washed over the state before the first pilgrims even set foot on Plymouth Rock. Lake Creek Rock slides, the Crack in the Ground, and the Vortex of Oregon are three unique outdoor destinations in Oregon that are both fun to visit and ponder over and also serve to tell a piece of the tale of Oregon's tumultuous past.
