Baker County, Oregon

Baker County sits in the eastern corner of Oregon and is a place of extremes. Summers scorch, winters freeze. Gold brought the first settlers here, but nowadays, it’s the hikers and skiers who strike it rich.
The Elkhorn Mountains tower high here. Locals swear by the healing powers of the hot springs scattered throughout the county. Baker City is the county seat, which still whispers the Old West.
Ranching runs deep in these parts. The Snake River slithers along the eastern border, carving out Hells Canyon. Yep, this is North America’s deepest river gorge. It’s a land that demands respect and rewards the adventurous.
