Exploring Oregon
Travelers in Oregon will find that almost any drive inevitably
takes them through beautiful landscapes. From Portland, day
trips can easily be made to the Columbia River Gorge and
Mount Hood, to the north and central coasts, and to the wine
country and historic towns of the Willamette Valley. From the
Pacific beaches, breathtakingly scenic drives lead across the
Coast Range to Bend and central Oregon, Bybee-Howell House, a Sauvie Island
and from there through pine forests and landmark, northwest of Portland
high desert country to such natural
wonders as Crater Lake, Steens
Mountain, and Hells Canyon. ASTORIA
