Venture into the high desert where the John Day River carves through ancient landscapes. The Painted Hills unfold like nature's canvas – stratified layers of red, gold, and black revealing millions of years of geological history. Discover prehistoric treasures at the Thomas Condon Paleontology Center, where fossils speak of ancient creatures that once roamed these lands. The Kam Wah Chung Museum offers a fascinating glimpse into Chinese immigrant life during the gold rush era, preserved exactly as its owners left it. After exploring, cool off with a swim at Clyde Holiday State Park. Don't miss the Grant County Ranch & Rodeo Museum, which celebrates the cowboy culture that still thrives in this rugged corner of the West.
