Grant County Map
This Gallery is a look at
the heavily eroded volcanic deposits of the scenic John Day River,
where lies a land for every taste.
Think gold mines, fishing lakes, lodge pole
pines, split rail fences; cows and cowboys,
sagebrush,
round bales, nationally acclaimed rock
formations of Sheep Rock & Picture Gorge,
many
painted hills,
Cathedral Rock, The Strawberry Mountains
and desolation at its finest.
Fox Creek (for which the town of Fox is
named) is a tributary of the North Fork of the John Day. The Fox
Church resonates in the community.
Whether
in Prairie City, Izee,
or John Day... it is the John Day River...its
forks,
its meandering peniplanes, its
abundant gifts, that makes these farming communities...
beautiful, productive, and a sight for sore eyes!
