Gilliam Location Map Oregon

Gilliam County sits in north-central Oregon, where the Columbia Plateau meets the Blue Mountains. It’s a place of wide-open spaces and big skies. Wheat fields stretch to the horizon.

Interstate 84 and the Columbia River form the northern border with the state of Washington. Condon is the county seat, is a small town with a lot of character. Locals are proud of their agricultural heritage.

Fishing and hunting are popular pastimes here. Wind farms are on the landscape, a sign of changing times. But ranching and farming still rule. It’s quiet out here, and that’s how folks like it.
