Roadside Oregon

Mt Hood from Hood River Valley above Parkdale looking towards the mountain.

I don’t have the exact location, but once you are in the area, you will see this view.  You can see the area in a Google Map here.

I think that these animals are Desert Mountain Sheep.  There are photographs of some at the Oregon Trail Interpretive Center and these look like the animals in the photographs.  If these are not Desert Mountain Sheep, please let me know and I will update the information on this page.

We saw them crossing the Hwy-140 East of Lakeview in Central Oregon.  They traveled in a small herd of about eight animals.

You can see a view of the area here at Google Maps.

This view of theThree Sisters from a pullout along the Forest Service road is on the way to the Boy Scout camp ‘Camp Melakwa’. The Camp is accessed 14 miles up Forest road 2649 off Highway 126 near the McKenzie Pass Hwy-242 junction with Hwy-126 east of Eugene. This view is about 10 miles in. You can not miss this view to the right side of the road.

You can see a Google Map of the are here.
