Recreation and
Places of Interest
Oregon
offers the vacationer a panorama of sandy beaches
broken by rocky cliffs, lofty snow-clad peaks
towering over broad river valleys, narrow canyons,
rushing streams, peaceful lakes, and dense
forests. It also provides ideal opportunities
for outdoor activities. Dominated by Mount
Hood, the most popular recreation area, the
spectacular mountain terrain challenges skiers
in winter and hikers and climbers in summer.
An abundance of wildlife in the vast forests
include deer, elk, small animals, and birds.
Trout, salmon, bass, perch, and other game
fish are plentiful in Oregon’s lakes
and streams... |
